Is my Betta ill?

Hi,

Got a beautiful Betta today, to join my 10 Cardinal/Neons and he has been sometimes hiding in a corner, then swimming, then keeping his beautiful tail shut, then he will open up, now I have noticed a few white specks on his face.

What should I do?

Re: Is my Betta ill?

He died overnight.

Poor little man, my boyfriend took him out of the tank, his face seems to be white all over now. He was eating and spreading his fins out then he started to hide down the side of the filter. Then my boyfriend found him led on the sand this morning.

I feel bad replacing him but is there a fish better suited to my tank that can be happy just with Neons?

What about a little plec?
I have a bulldog/rubbernose plec.. he won't get very big. Stay away from common plecs they get huge.
Plecs are great they also help a little with algae.
