So I have divided and have been treating with Pimafix for 5 days. I don't want to use anything too harsh if I don't have to. Her body still has some fungal looking marks on her that don't look like there has been any improvement but she did eat two pieces of tilapia tonight. The first time in almost 2 weeks.

Thats good...she is def getting stressed by something in that tank... The marks do they look like scrapes or growths?

I would have to agree with most others have said. I would worry most about stressors or water quality . Since divided are the spots in question getting any better? Also the pictures maybe helpful. did she eat again today?

How is she doing? I still wonder if it is stress related. She still eating? The lesions getting worse? Anything new in the tanks or last few months?

She is active and eating small amounts. She still looks lousy though. But must be getting better because for two weeks she didn't eat anything and didn't really move much

Sounds like she is coming around. I would give her more time and keep up with the wcs.
