Lately I've been having a lot of issues with fin rot. It's claimed at least half a dozen of my fish (all guppies). I first noticed it after I added several guppies to my 10 gallon. I then tried treating it with salt but stopped after I noticed that one of my guppies began losing it's color and swimming funny. I then tried using API Melafix, but that only made it worse (particularly with the Betta). I stopped using that did a few water changes and then tried Microbe-Lift Artemiss. That seemed to stop the fin rot from getting any worse, but the fish didn't have show any improvement. Last week I lost 2 more guppies (one to dropsey {this was the one that reacted badly to the salt} and one to fin rot). I've been doing several 50% water changes a week, but no improvement. Does anyone know of a good antibiotic for curing fin rot? I was thinking of Paraguard, but I haven't had any experience with it.
- The Betta has never behaved aggressively around any of the guppies, so I know it's not the problem.
