My Betta Has Fish Rot - I'm Buying a New Tank - But......

[lisa1124]

My poor little guy has fin rot. I am going to buy a new two gallon tank and new gravel. When I put him in his new environment, should I add some of his old water? He was so beautiful and I do water changes every week. Someone suggested that I use gravel from a pre-existing tank for the good bacteria but I think that may have caused this.

All you need to heal him is clean water and stable temps. You can add melafix if you want to speed up the process.

If I do a 100% water change, will it stress him out to remove him?
