Salt help please

[DangerousDan]

One of me Reds has been set about by the other 9 and now has no back end to it, just a tail fin and bone!
The fish its self seems ok, well as ok as you would be if someone skined ur legs down to the bone.
Any way, its currently being treated, but I want to give it some regular salt baths to avoid any infection getting into the exposed "flesh"
Anyone know how much salt per liter I should/can dose at?
Cheers

use the aquarium salt for fresh water from fish store and follow the instruction on it.
if no instruction is given for some strange reason, I remember it's like one tablespoon for every 5 gallon. 1 gallon = 3.8L so do the math.

Another thing too, its really hard to over dose the salt JP is referring to especially if you're "bathing" him in it for a short time.

I'd add it to his recovery tank, do a small water change daily bump heat up a tiny bit, and add small doses of the salt every change.
