I have a one gallon tank. I top up the evaporated water weekly and change the water completely every 3-4 weeks. There is no filter. I always use the same temp of water and the tank water is 73-75 degrees. I have done no tests to the water. I have had the fish since late last summer and he has always been in the 1 gallon tank. I use the recommended amount of Top Fin Betta Water Conditioner and always have. There does not appear to be an wounds or injuries. His fins starting at the body and heading down towards the tips are going white and the underside of body right behind his head. The fins are also starting to get ragged. He is eating normally but seems to have low energy. He is not flaring himself like he used to. There are no live plants in the tank but there is a fake one. I was planning to get live ones as I recently read that the fake can damage the fins. I have done nothing different than since the firts day I got him and he was bright and active up until the last 2 weeks.
