My 15" Florida Gar's front right fin is starting to fray out or deteriorate. It's not severe, but I would like to stop it before it gets bad. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get rid of it I would appreciate it. I've been using salt and my temp is around 80-82.
 
i would put a tablespoon of salt per 5 gallons (pre mixed). It may not be fin rot though. are there other fish in the tank?

BTW you don't have to be a butt hole when someone is just trying to help.

I wasnt being a butthole to you (it was just a joke). Don't be a drama queen...

BTW...The noob that i was refering to was myself. I was a member for about a month when i made that thread.
