I think my baby oscar might have fin rot. His right fin has been looking shredded the past couple days and it has had a couple spots on it that seem to be growing. Im kinda freaked out since hes so small, barely 2 inches. Shud I bump up the tempand add salt or is there a treatment for it? Starting to panic a pick so i need an answer as quick as possible :[[[[[ thanks in advance!

I couldnt mange to get a pic for you guys since hes albino and my cameras pics are always so blurry :[
The dots on the fins are probably scar tissue.
You can use Melafix if you want. I like to use Melafix for things like: ripped fins, cuts from fighting, wounds etc...
You can also use aquarium salt (melafix is ALOT cheaper if you buy Melafix pond formula).
Its fins should heal back just fine. However, if the fins start to look inflamed and bloody, start using antibiotics.
Good luck!!!!
