Betta's lip falling off?
I'm not exactly sure what it is, but it looks like my betta's lip is falling off. I'm not a very inexperienced fish keeper, but I'm fairly new to bettas. Nitrates, Nitrites and Ammonia are 0ppm. pH is about 6.5 in a planted 6 gallon with filter and lighting. Just did a 30% water change on Wednesday.
He was fine on Friday but I left for the weekend (fed him Friday, came back Sunday and fed him) and I noticed his top lip looked like it was falling off almost. =[
When I noticed this, I immediately put him in a 1 gallon tank so I could do daily water changes and I plan to keep adding stress coat.
Anyone know what this is? Any sort of disease or did he just possibly get it caught on something?
Any ideas on how to help him heal? Other than clean water so it doesn't get infected.
