how to treat Betta fish parasite infections

Good call starting with the salt bath. If that doesn't cut it, you might need meds like Paraguard or General Cure. Just avoid anything with copper if you've got shrimp or snails in there.

Exactly. Also, keep the tank dimly lit while treating. Parasites can be sensitive to light, and your betta will appreciate the chill vibe.

How's your betta doing now? Any improvement after the salt bath? If not, you might need to escalate to meds. Sometimes parasites can be stubborn.
