My betta has got finrot. It seems to have really set in quickly. My tank has been treated with the recommended dosage of finrot control but i was wonderin if i could treat him in the main tank or whether or not it would be better to isolate him. (Did a 25% water change 2 dayz ago & am addin finrot control every 24 hourz). Suggestions please!! Cheerz.

Definetly isolate him if you can. The rest of your fish do not need treatment and it is easier to treat a smaller tank.
 
Very clean water (lots of water changes) is the best you can do for bettas with fin rot. For other fish you can use melafix, but it is bad for bettas. Also make sure your tank doesn't have anything sharp or rough that could further injure its tail.
