Hi!
I have a 120 litre tank with a big fancy goldfish, 2 weather loaches and 2 albino corys, who have all lived in harmony for about 6/7 years.
I must admit I have neglected water changes over the past couple of months because I recently broke my ankle so everything has been difficult.
I’ve noticed today that my goldfish is suffering from finrot, and one of my loaches is now attacking her because she’s ill.
I have quarantined the goldfish because of this, and have treated both the old tank and the one that the goldfish is in.
Unfortunately all I have to quarantine my goldfish in is a bucket (that isn’t see through) so I can only see her from the top.
My question is, how long does it generally take for a fish to recover from finrot? I have read about seeing new growth but obviously it’s hard when I can only see her from the top. Also how often should I be doing water changes for her to best help her recover? Thankyou.
