pike's fins need advice.

[est 032909]

hello,

question just recently purchased what was labeled as a marbled gar, but i have been referred here from the gar section. they seemed to think it was a pike.

anyways, the little guy seems to have fin damage. almost rheumatoid arthritis in humans.

any supplements i can give the little guy?

thanks,
-brad

I would put in some stress coat and do daily water changes, and keep him away from fin rippers.

boulengerella species, melafix should work along with water changes.

already doing that, bought him at pet supermarket, they had him with figure 8 puffers!

anyways torn fins i can understand from nipping, but the bent pectoral fins i didn't like.

thanks for the advice. melafix it is.
