Ack!! I have a sick Beta Help Please! 
Ok my Beta Sai’Phong is showing signs that he’s really sick. He is very lethargic and when I tried to feed him a few minutes ago, it seemed like he couldn’t see the food! I was doing everything I could to lead him to it and it seems like he wants to eat but he just can’t get his mouth around any food. After about half a minute he sort of "gave up" and sank to the bottom of the tank. He seems so weak! Please help! He lives in a 5 gallon aquarium with a nice hidey cave-like thing that he’s always lurked in. I’ve had him for about 3 years and I’ve never seen him act this way. :(

Just an update. I noticed his water temps were pretty low. I’m in the middle of a cold snap where I live so I put a small heater in his tank to warm up the water for a bit. I tried to feed him again and it seems like he really wants to eat but he is either blind or he cant open his jaw enough I don’t know. Am I going to lose him?
