"Only homemade materials"? Do you mean that you can't get any medications? There are medications available for treating popeye, just look in the medication section at PetCo. If you can't get any, riasing the temp to 85 degrees and adding some aquarium salt is usually a good idea for a sick Betta. It might not cure anything but will help his body to be strong enough to heal.
