My Goldfish (a common one, not fancy), has developed some tearing in his fins. His dorsal fin was the first one I noticed with a little tear in it, then 2 days after that, one of his pectoral fins got a long tear in it. (It's split in half, almost all the way)
His tail fin seems to be having some slight rigid edges, as well. There are no red streaks on him anywhere.
The medicines I'm considering are:
API Melafix
Maracyn-One
Maracyn-Two
Maybe Maracyn Plus (not really sure how it's different from Maracyn one and two, aside from being a liquid)
I'm wondering what would be best to treat this?
Last year, I treated him with Maracyn one and two for Popeye. It didn't make it go away, but it stagnated and doesn't seem to have gotten worse. So, if anything can help his eyes go back in his head (LOL), that would be a fabulous plus!
I'm very sure this came on from poor water quality, as I was physically unable to care for the tank for a little while.
It's a 10 gallon tank (I know, too small, can't afford a bigger one atm), I've now been changing the water everyday since I've gotten better, and all the parameters are in ideal range now.
