My betta has been sick for the last wk. He is in a 2.5 gal heated tank. He has been lethargic, not eating, breathing rapidly and just basically lays on a silk plant all day long. At first I though he had fin rot because he had clamped fins too. I put in some bettafix and saw no results. I then tried a bit of Jungle Fungus Clear, again no improvement to the betta. Then I noticed a shiny spec near his gill and thought he had ich. I purchased ich guard and have been treating his tank for 3 days now. There has been no improvement at all. Before puttting in the ich guard I removed the betta and dumped and rinsed the gravel and cleaned the aquarium. I kept 50 percent of his old water and also added new water to fill the tank. I waited for the water to clear and temp to get to 78 before returning Mr. Limpet to the tank. I do use spring water I have been checking the betta to see if I notice anything on him & the spec which appears like a shiny fleck is still there. One gill seems to flare
