Hello. I have a female Koi Betta fish named Coral. I estimate she is about 8-9 months old. So far she is doing very good but for the past few days her color has faded and she has been near the top of the water and she has not been eating. I am not sure what is wrong with her but do you guys have suggestions for extra vitamins or different food. Thank you so much !

I have 2 salmenese tiger fish and two smaller fish in approximately 3.5 L bowl. I bought them on 1 April. 3 act normal but one act abnormal from first day. One salmenese tiger fish doesn't move much first it stayed at bottom now it's gapping at surface and if I try to catch to check it it goes down again. It's fins are turning red or I don't know if it already was. I don't understand how to help. Parents are out town so I can't go to shop. I am not sure if all are eating food.
where do you buy show quality bettas
My fish has got stuck in the filter, I have released her from the filter but she is breathing heavily and has damaged her tail. She’s gone to the bottom of the tank, is not moving or eating. I have put her in a separate tank so the other fish do not bother her. Her tail is red and looks like it’s filled with blood. What can I do to help her?
Last Monday, I got 3 bleeding heart tetras. All seemed well. When I checked on the fish last evening, I noticed 1 of the bleeding heart tetras was missing her tail. I know she does not have fin rot, as her other fins look healthy. It didn't look infected, so I decided to let it heal on its own. When I woke up, she was floating on her back, I flipped her around and she was fine. Now the other 2 are fin nipping her and ganging up on her. I moved her to a small glass bowl, what now?
What is wrong with my Bettas end fins?
Hello there I’ve been keeping a goldfish for over a year and recently bought a new one today I witnessed a red sign something like blood in the forehead of one of them and assumed maybe it’s been hit by the other one now the question is what should I do about it?! Is it serious should I take it to a vet?! Thank you
