Hi All,
I have a 30L tank iwth one halfmoon betta who got fin rot. Water parameters are all normal, but he was getting worse. I do weekly water changes and often an extra one mid week. I eventually bought some aquarium salt which I havent used yet and dosed his tank with some Tetra general tonic as per instructions but I read on another thread that this will kill my beneficial bacteria? I worked so hard to cycle this tank. What should I do now? Just let it be? I only have ammonia and nitrite kits at home. The PH and nitrates I have to get checked at pet shop. I also have some plants and watchng them closely. Will take them out if they seem affected. Any suggestions? I dont think I would need to give him another dose of the tonic so maybe just the one dose wont ruin the parameters?
