I think its most probally fin root....Only the end of the tail those "webbing" is gone...leaving only the spines i would describe...but its only a small portion...not the whole tail..

Also i have a betta spiky fin 1 which refuses to flare after a week

The only disease I have with bettas is velvet (a type of parasite) every once a while. The fish refuses to flare. Color turns dull and fins folded. Shine a torch in the dark. The parasite is visible as golden dust over the fish body and fins. If this is the case, commercial copper based medicine is effective in curing.
