Betta Fin Rot!!!

Unread post by cichlids »

Hi All,
My betta fins have been damaged. There are no rocks of plants (sharp edged substances) in the tank to hurt it.
I'm facing the problem with two of my bettas.
I have added a few drops of Rid-All and rock salt.
Am I going in the right way.??

Please help!!!

Medicine - Rid All

Waiting for valuable suggestions.
How many days does it require to recover.??

Thanks,

Fin Rot in bettas appear due to dirty water so change water frequently.
Also dose tetracyclene/ampicilne capsule approx. 20mg/gallon

Change water daily and dont use any other medicine. Also Maintain temperature.
Your fish will be recover within 6-8 days.
