A picture would be very helpful. ^^
Also, look up goldfish breeding stars to make sure that's not it. Because people often mistake them for ick or whatever else when they are harmless. :3

      omg, your betta is gorgeous!!! you haven't named him? how about arokh? i have no idea why but in my opinion, i think it suits him.
      (arokh is just a dragon character in one of my favorite video games. if you aren't sure how it is pronounced, it is just like saying the word air... then rock. like air-rock. cx) i always thought that name only would work for a really dark red betta but, i don't know. i really like that name for him. c:
      he is just so beautiful! and his tail is so huge! i am kind of jealous of him. cx

I can't get any pictures because he hides when I get too close to the tan with my camra.

A white spot is very vague and could mean anything.
You can also find a picture of what it looks like online.
But we really can't help you unless you get a picture or some other information to show us.

I find that if I just sit by the tank with my camera for a while, my fish will come back out of hiding when they get used to you being there. It just takes patience.

      dia's right. my bettas used to hate coming out when i had my camera with me. but i sat there and waited for them to come out to check if i was gone. he'd keep hiding everytime he saw it but after awhile, they got used to the camera. now i take pictures of them all the time. cx
      it is worth the wait if you want to make sure he is ok. c:

Gonna quote myself from the old thread as no one has answered this yet and I'm still very worried ;0;'

Recently Blueberry died, he was sort of my pride and joy. But this morning, I found Serpent dead as well. She was fine last night but this morning I found her dead under a plant and she looked like she had been rotting for days. Is there some sort of betta disease that is contiguous and kills in a few hours?

not accepting pms right now unless I add you to my friends list.
finally quitting. I've told myself I'll quit soon, and I never did, but I finally feel like I should quit. Still keeping my characters/deviantart though. I've wanted to quit for a long long time, but I'm doing it.
Nobody on here talks with me , is friends, and I try to chat on the FR thread but nobody responds much.
Quitting CS and flightrising.

All my fr dragons/stuff went to one of my real life best friends, so don't ask for my FR stuff.
