Fin Rot

Recommended Posts

I have a female aulonacara and she has quite bad fin rot on her tail fin - half is missing. She gets bullied quite a bit and I think it is a result of stress.

Is there any treatments people can suggest. I looked in the FAQ section but couldn't find anything relevant.

I am thinking if there is nothing effective I would prefer to euthanase her as she is having such a hard time.

Cheers

Foai

She won' lose her tail to "stress", she will lose it due to it being bitten off. Killing her because she is having a hard time due to your mixing the fish poorly is a pretty poor fish keeping.

Put more places in there for her to hide, give her to somone on ACE who can look after her, or take her back to a shop and give her to them.

Use Melafix to prevent fungus.

Put her in a floatie with a piece of ag pipe. If the rot continues try Melafix (or the DIY version of the same) That should sort the problem out and give her time to recover.
