bata

Question
My bata is in a fish bowl. Have had it for 5 months.three weeks ago it had a bubble on the belly area and the bubble is getting bigger and bigger. what is its problem?

Answer
Hi Mary,
 I think you mean a "betta"?   Unfortunately the bubble sounds like some sort of tumor and there really isn't anything you can do about that.  Sorry.
