Thanks for the site! It's very helpful. I'm one of those people who always wanted fish, but the neighborhood I grew up in had horrible water (some people in my neighborhood even wound up mysteriously getting cancer) and no matter what I did my fish ALWAYS got infections. Now I have two bettas and I'm concerned to the point of paranoia about them getting sick, so I'm very happy to have this resource! Thanks again <3

They don't mention "Clammped Fins" this is a stress or a fungus that the Bettas get and you have to use Fungus Meds.
So far we have not pulled out if it and I hope to soon, pleae look it up google it or yahoo it.

They don't mention it becaused clamped fins is not a disease and a sign of stress (which could be from a disease).

Clamped fins is an initial sign of stress. There should be other indicators (loss of appetite, bulging belly, hard time swimming etc...) But this is not the appropiate thread for that.

Is it just me or does that site no longer work? I'll post my problem here seeing as it is the disease portion of the forum. I've just noticed the the left eye of my CT female has a weird cloudy look to it. For the time being I am assuming it is glaucoma or cataracts but could it be something else? It's only the left eye for the moment, the right eye looks very healthy still. Any suggestions will be appreciated, I need to get some fin rot medication this week so if there is any kind of other medication I need to get for this specific problem I'd like to get it at the same time. Also as a side note, is it Melafix or primafix that is for fin rot, white spot and velvet etc? I can't remember

Is this site gone now? I got a 404 error, and when I went to the root of the site, all I get is web hosting info.

Was looking forward to checking that site out... Oh well...
