I just got a 2 gallon tank for my Betta and after about a week my air pump started making fizzing bubbles across the entire tank. What does that mean?

• • If you mean that air is coming up through the gravel in the tank, it sounds as though you have the airstone for the undergravel filter pushed down so far that it is actually releasing air below the gravel which is bubbling up through the gravel. I would lift the air line up a bit so the air rises up the tube and cannot be released below the gravel.
