Great video Ron! I feel like I have something to add. Although Melafix is a good fin rot cure, it should be noted that it’s not an appropriate option for fish with labyrinth organs, such as bettas and gourami, because they go to the surface to breathe air, and melafix creates an oily residue on the surface of the water that labyrinth fish can breathe in and suffocate on. Same goes for bettafix, and pretty much any medication with “fix” in its name, as the oil comes from the tree oil that is the active ingredient in such medications. If you have a betta or gourami or other labyrinth fish with fin rot, the recommended cure is lots and lots of fresh clean water via daily water changes.

Thanks Ron, I really needed this, I appreciate you bro 👑✌🏽🙏🏽

Nice tip on the fin rot

Nice info on how to treat fin and tail rot, I use melafix for mild cases of fin and tail rot, for more resistant strains of bacteria I like to use kanamycin powder in the water or in their food, I also had good luck with mardel maracyn 2

Great info good stuff man

Very good information Ron 👍

Nice video! I could of used this a couple months back!

The bacteria that cause fin rot is naturally occurring in every aquarium. It doesn't just come from pet stores or somewhere specific, it's everywhere. All it takes is the fish to become stressed from a multitude of things which weakens the immune system and it strikes. So when ever someone says 'it must have come from the pet store' isn't exactly correct. It's always in your tank no matter where your fish came from. Good water quality reduces risk of infection it's doesn't prevent it. Keeping fish healthy, well fed on a balanced diet, clean, relaxed and stress free is the true prevention.

interesting and informative video my friend.
