In today's video, I go over the common signs/symptoms that your betta fish might be sick.
CW: This video includes occasional pictures and videos of some ill and stressed fish. I added these as visual representations are always best when available, although I understand it may be hard to watch.
I address the signs of each categorized illnesses: bacterial, fungal, and parasites. I focus on the appearance first, then state the behavioural changes. After focusing on these direct symptoms, I go over the signs that could mean illness and often accompany illness- but aren't direct symptoms that ALWAYS mean illness.
Thank you to my Instagram followers for their submissions.

FAQS:
Q: How many fish tanks do I have?
A: Just one!
Q: Will I ever get a betta sorority/breed bettas?
A: Nope and nope! Both require a lot of work, money, and time to perfect- neither of which I'm willing or able to provide!
Q: How do you name your fish?
A: Sometimes I'm inspired by a character in a show or movie, or someone in real life like a celebrity. More often than not, however, I literally just choose whatever pops into my head- its like names I love but would never name my future children for whatever reason haha
