Parents cleaned my tanks without asking :/ Betta

Came home today to this. First pic is what they put the fish in for god knows how long, last pic is my tank before they cleaned it. They told me it was bc my room looked “messy”. They are old so I don’t blame them…. But damn…

Thank you for your kind words 🙏luckily the filter was only submerged in a bucket of water so I don’t think they cleaned it yet.

It’s still probably compromised, if they used tap water the chlorine probably killed all the beneficial bacteria.
