I have a betta fish that I purchased 2 and a half weeks ago. It is in a flat sided bowl, i am changing the water weekly. Since I've got it it did not eat. The food that i have is the Wardley betta prerimum food. When I asked at petco what to do, they suggested to try the bettafix drops. I've tried it for 7 days, still It's seems like nothing helps.
The fish is inactive(from the begnning)still alive but I'm affreid that not for long.
What else can I do?
Thank's

I have been told that wardley isn't a good company for betta food. You can try frozen bloodworms. Most bettas usually love these. By flat sided bowls, is it those small bowls which only hold like a pint of water? Those fluctuate temp. and water chemistry easily. I suggest you keep a betta in a tank of at least 2.5 gallons to house one comfortably.
