Yesterday I noticed a piece missing from my dwarf gouramis bottom fin (not sure what its called, Its the fin on the underside of him.) Around the tear, its brownish. I do 15% water changes three times a week. The tank size is 20 gallons. Could this be some sort of fin rot?Or did one of my other fish take a piece out of him, I have two tiger barbs and a molly. I haven't had any problems before with any of them picking on each other.

He's acting normal and eating normally.

Sorry about your fish. I don't have enough experience to answer this but I hope someone else helps you. Good luck.
 
Im pretty sure it's fin Rot based on other answers on other posts. I'm treating him now.
 
That's what I've been doing. How often should I do them? I'm treating him with Melafix now, on the third day
