Please help me diagnose my sick betta?
To start off, there are no problems with water quality. I have experience with fish and the nitrogen cycle and have tested parameters every day and found no problems. This particular betta has been living alone in a 5-gallon cycled tank for almost a year now. This is the first time I have had a sick fish.
My betta is experiencing the following symptoms:
1.) fins have rapidly deteriorated (within a week, his fins are less than half their original size)
2.) color loss (was a vibrant blue, but now turning pale and grayish)
3.) rapid weight loss except in area of pectoral fins, which has maintained its original size
4.) eyes bulging out -- Fish is unable to see well enough to eat food. He will try pouncing on the food but completely miss by a half inch.
5.) lethargy -- he hardly moves at all when before he was a very active fish
I have tried treating with medications: first with kanaplex, then with API fungus cure. He looked a little better after the first dose of kanaplex, but then got worse again. I did not see any change in his condition with the API fungus cure.
Any ideas on what this could be and/or what I can do to treat him?
2 AnswersFish4 years agoI have had my cat for two years and have never seen him not use the litter box. However, my landlord is charging me to replace the carpets..?
She claims that when they pulled the carpets back, the smell of cat urine was so bad that they had to rep them. I don't mind paying for the carpet if my cat did indeed per on it, but I also want to make sure that my landlord isn't just taking advantage of me. Is it plausible that my cat would only per when I'm not home and that I would never notice a smell or stain when I returned? Again, I have never seen my cat not use the litterbox, and I have never seen or smelled pee on the carpet.

1 AnswerMusic & Music Players6 years agoFor extracellular fluid to be isotonic, does the osmotic pressure between it and the cytosol need to be 0?
I calculated the osmotic pressure between the extracellular fluid and cytosol to be:
RTΔc=(0.0821)(310)(0.05) = 1.27atm
where 0.05=the osmolarity difference between the inside and outside of the cell
Is my reasoning correct that this fluid is not isotonic because this osmotic pressure value is not 0?

Engineering8 years agoHow can I multiply a frequency using a Phase Locked Loop?
I understand how a PLL works that compares the frequency of the incoming signal to a reference frequency and then adjusts the incoming signal to match the reference frequency. However, I am confused about how to use a PLL to multiply the frequency of the incoming signal by the frequency of the reference signal. Could someone please explain this?
