Betta with ouchy fin

17 years ago
My betta has just developed (like, over the last few hours) a red bump on one of his side fins. He's still swimming around and begging for food and saying hello and whatnot, but he's clamping that fin down.
I've got a 2 gallon tank, filtered (5 gal capacity biofilter with charcoal and zeolite), with about 2" of gravel. I change about 30-40% of the water every couple weeks, replacing with conditioned (Stress Coat) spring water. The quick test strip I just tried looked good, although it's indicating hard water.
I've got the light out and am trying to convince the little guy to sleep and not hurt hisself worse, but beyond that I don't know how to treat the tank. Helllp!
Thanks...
