Betta white patch on head

[tamara_fleury]

My betta fish all of a sudden has a white patch on his head. He is acting completely normal otherwise. All of his parameters seems fine and i did 40% water change yesterday. He lives in a ten gallon tank. I did notice one of his aquarium decorations had a sharp edge that had been broken, i removed it. He may have scraped his head on it? Hard to see in photos..

Pretty rusty orange boy! Not a "usual" color, I like it! He also seems pretty large. How long have you had him? Modern bettas often don't live too very long, 2 years or so...

Well, I don't really see the white patch on his head. I'm not saying it's not there, but hard to say. Can you try for a few more clear pics please? Plastic pineapple & plants, biggish gravel, I don't know, he might get scraped on those.

It looks like he may have "bulge" over his eye. I'm not sure what that might mean.

Please post your actual numbers from a test kit (what kit?) What does your tap water show? We'll try to help
