I think my FH is suffering from columnaris but as no big white spot is visible on the body,i think it is fin rot but now,i noticed some fine dots on the face of the FH,it is still active,eating but its tail fins are turning transparent.help me fast

sorry for the bad sound i.e. is of the big choked filter running ;) and help me how to treat it.i have raised the temp. to 30 C and added nearly 1/2 tablespoon of salt per gallon.Giving it salt bath for 10 mins twice a day with meth. blue in that salt bath.
 
hard to tell from the vid, but looks normal to me, face looks like it has pearls on it. About the fins are they transperabt/white towards the ends? If they are its normal as the fish grows into an adult the transperancy should color up.

ok,now i added some medicine named rid-alls whid rid my flowerhorn from inch,i believe in nearly 5 hours and i wish it has even killed their baby cocoons and now the transparency is also filling up,getting nice again ;)
 
I didn't see anything but frayed fins, which are often due to water quality issues, not illness. What are your water parameters?

Ich isn't gone in 5 hrs. They can fall off the fish temporarily during their reproduction cycle, but 5 hrs is quick enough that it tells me it probably wasn't ich.
