Re: Feeling defeated and considering giving up

If you've got a spare 5-gallon tank lying around, consider transferring Grosso to it temporarily - it's possible something in the current tank is poisoning him. Beyond that, I'm at a loss. Best bet is to wait for someone more knowledgeable like Ellrog or Colin to chime in with some advice.

Re: black spot on betta's tail fin

I'm thinking maybe the shrimp, or possibly even the nerites, could've nipped at your betta's tail fin, causing the blackening. It's possible this is the start of fin rot, despite your good water parameters.

My mom said I can use her planters (pics below), but I want to make sure they'll be okay before I start planting. I don't ...
