I got him from PetSmart a few weeks ago. I noticed that he had minor fin rot so I did 50% changes and added double dose of stresscoat. However, that did not work and it got worse. I added some salt (1TSP/G) and did 100% daily. His fins kept melting away and so I shut off his heater and filter to see if that'll make a difference. Unfortunately, the next morning, HALF of his tail was GONE. I couldnt wait any longer and picked up some API T.C. Tetracycline, it was the only medication for Fin rot that I could find (other than betta and metafix).
His fins are still melting away.
He is in a 5 gallon tank by himself.
Not cycled but i have been doing 50% changes everyday.
72F, internal filter is off, no carbon.
I use Seachem Prime, but swapped to StressCoat to help his fins grow.
The first photo was from yesterday morning. The second is from last night, and the third was today. I put a mirror beside him to make him stretch his fins out so that I could see them properly.
How do I tell if the Fin Rot is gone?? His rot is not getting any better
