Hi all, first I received a betta from someone that did not want it any longer, I felt sorry for it because it was living in a very small container. I purchased a 5 gallon tank put some of those clear stones on the bottom, silk plants etc. the tank does have a small filter with a high and low switch and I added a small heater. First off I thought my betta was a girl because she has such short fins. She has been very happy for the last 3 weeks or so. My first question is...........this morning, I noticed the bubble nest on top of the water....does this mean my Tullahbell is really a Tony?
Second question....... I do a 25% water change every week, only the last few days I noticed a cloudy film on the top of the water that has never been there before??? I feed her the bottles of betta food that says give 3-5 pellets a day. What could this film be from and how do I remove it? This is all new to me and I don't want to do anything that will cause him/her harm.
Thanks for any info or advice you can give me.
