Got a EBJD with bad fin rot. The right fin looks like a cotton ball and the other fins aren't looking great either. I have been treating it with Binox for over a week but there doesn't seem to be any improvement. Any other recommendations would be appreciated.

Water should be okay, will test in 30mins and re post levels.

Thanks,

Pimafix specifically targets fungal infections (supposedly), though.

I suggest moving to a hospital tank and treating with Jungle's fizzing tablets. They're these big circle tablets in foil wrappers from a company called Jungle, and they fizz and dissolve when you drop 'em in water, and they have many different kinds for specific things, like fin rot, HITH, ich, etc. You should move to a hospital tank because I'm not sure what it will do to your BB, but it also stains the silicone blue. I've had excellent results with this company in the past.
 
Based on your description of its condition things are already too bad for melafix and pimafix to do anything.

I would do a water change then start treating the tank with maracyn 1 and 2 immediately.

If you have a hospital tank it would be best to put him there to treat him, obviously will save you some money too.
 
I think its going to die. I'v treated with every fungus and bacterial med I have and it is getting worst. Now the fungus is on its' mouth and other fins.
 
move it to a smaller hospital tank and take the charcoal our of the filter in that tank. treat with something stronger, nad it'll have more effect since the fish is in a smaller tank. and do some good water changes. hope it makes it
 
It has been in a 10 gallon tank. I don't know what else is stronger, I have pretty much ever med in the local pet store and then some.
