Hey anyone know a good fin rot medicine sold in pet stores that wont kill my BB?
 
Its ok BB stans for Benificial Bacteria ive heard melafix is mostly good for prevention not curing but thanks tho
 
tried that just slowed it down not cure it
 
I usually don't use chemicals, but melafix might be your best bet to heal the wounds.. I would boost up the temp and add salt before hand to see if that helps. Also, if you're worried about your BB, use a hospital tank.

I use to keep piranhas for awhile and have had alot of nasty fin and body bites, I have have always used melafix and it cures it fast!
Also melafix doesnt harm your bacteria, just make sure to either take out your carbon from your filters before you dose the tank, or like the fella above said, dose up a hospital tank, if you feel more secure doing that instead
