New Reticulated (Tea cup) Rays

I'm looking for a little help here, my female ray came to me with a small fungal infection on her barb, she didn't travel to me with a cap, so I'm left to believe it was from supplier to distributer when the cap was used.

i have her and the male in a temp quarantine tank to try and fight off the infection. After much research online, I found Pimafix to try and fight off the fungus. It's been 4 days, and there has been no improvement. Should I wait to finish the 7 day cycle to add possibly salt or something else? Any suggestions?

Both are eating voraciously, and swimming fine. Just worried.

You can put some salt in it, helps alot, nice to see they´re eating, most of them retics are very hard to get to eat

Will the salt help to heal the minor fungal infection? How much salt per gallon?

They do eat a lot, I was surprised, that eat 3-4 times a day, live black worms and frozen blood worms. I had read they're hard to wean onto others (frozen) foods, these two didn't seem to mind.

Yeah, you'll want the salinity about 3ppt to help with the fungal issue.
I always suggest running full length treatments. Switching mid way will do nothing for the animal.

Used Maracyn2. It worked and the fungal infection went away. Moved her into the big tank. Yesterday I noticed it is starting to come back. Im taking her back out into a quarentine tank and trying maracyn 2 and salt again. She's actively hunting still. So I'm hopeful she'll be able to kick this thing again.
