- Stop loosing fish to Dropsy! Learn everything you need to know about what causes dropsy in fish, how to prevent it and how to treat it
Dropsy, also known as "pinecone disease," is a condition caused by a buildup of fluid inside a fish's body cavity, leading to swelling and protrusion of its scales, resembling a pinecone. This condition often indicates underlying health issues such as bacterial infections, organ failure, or poor water quality.
Prevention is key to maintaining the health of your aquarium. We'll discuss essential steps to prevent Dropsy, including maintaining optimal water parameters, providing a balanced diet, and quarantine procedures for new fish to prevent the spread of diseases.

My Betta was lost due to improper food. The food was supposed to be designed specifically for Bettas, but the granules were pretty hard, elongated and as it turned out too big. The betta chew the sticks with a crisping sound, which I thought was ok, after all, this was Betta-specific food. But I figured out it caused a wound inside his mouth, and that's how infection got him
That is very unfortunate, but it is sadly reality. Once bettas became extremely popular a bunch of companies jumped on the band wagon and started making and marketing betta foods that were not good for them. I only feed my betta fish, bug bites, Northfin betta food Xtreme Nano and then Hikari Freeze dried or frozen Blood/Tubfix worms now. I am planning to do a new food guide for 2024 to hopefully educate people on this topic as well. I am sorry that you lost your fish to greedy company marketing and lies.
Thank you Lefty ,great advice . Lovely to see you take care 🤗💙
Thanks so much for watching Debz :) I miss seeing everyone too! Hoping to get back into the swing of things
Great information lefty, thanks very much!🙂👍🏻
Thanks for watchin :3 glad you found it informative
Brilliant video...I would also say some garlic I the water has definatly help me save a fish or two.
Good tip to know! Thank you for sharing and thank you for watching. I'm glad you found it to be useful information. I just wanted to help spread awareness because I know the first time I had a fish get dropsy I was at a total loss for what was going on and I don't want others to also go through that.
@@Lefty3213a this video was great I have a number of tanks and have experienced all you said...I'm based I'm cape town south africa and ofcoarse different climates also play a role...I found that the pine coneing...and loss of energy I notice first and then sometimes Popeye I immediately remove and start with some salt and garlic and change diet to only live food to also trigger their appetite.. I've only done the more naturals ways...the medication advice and the things you said about spotting the various types top notch thank you.
Wow! That's awesome to see my video is reaching someone on the other side of the globe! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and wish you the best of luck with your fish keeping journey

I always thought dropsy was a kidney disease and difficult to near impossible to recover from or reverse, however if it is food related it’s pretty sad that poor quality foods are on sale.
You are correct that yes it can be an issue with an internal organ. But I think in todays day and age a lot of the cases people see is just do to bad food that gets pushed out thanks to really good marketing. I know since I switched my foods to a better quality food ive not had a single case in my fish
