Healing up betta fin damage?

[xoparis]

I just purchased some HM males that have fin damage from breeding(I felt bad! Couldnt let them sit there!)...Could anyone suggest a way to grow it back that you might use?

Here are the boys:

2 reds from bettysplendens:

Dragon:

Green boy:

ive heard of many different methods, but I wanted to see what you guys thought.

Clean water is the best way to go IMO. Treating with a broad spectrum med like Melafix wouldn't hurt either.

Okay good...so at least I wasnt doing THAT wrong! haha. Melafix is what ive treated my other bettas with as well with tons of water changes.

yeap, I would go the same way.... water changes will be key in getting him back into shape though.

you may be introducing the female to early if this keeps happening...

I'm not the one breeding them...I'm purchasing them off Aquabid like this. Could help but want to fix them!

Daily water changes and some bettafix. :idea:

stress coat and melafix with lots of water changes... also temp around 78-80 helps good luck and good on ya saving the rejects

Is bettafix pretty effective? Becuase I have that stuff and I used it on a few of my other boys.

ive heard its not effective. it's pretty much melafix but watered down.
