Hi everyone,
I'm new to these forums, as you can clearly see.
Unfortunately I came with a problem. I bought a hi-fin loach about a month and a half ago. I have a 75 gallon tank, it's a non-agressive community tank. Everything was completely fine until last week. I noticed the loach's fin split. I decided to treat it with Melafix, I was concerned with fin rot mostly because of the white. The fin grew back in fine but now the loach has even more splits!
It's a tropical tank, I make weekly water changes. I feed a variety of diets. The loach always stays in the front and I never see him get caught on any plants. He isn't acting any differently but I'd like to save him as best as I can. He's actually a tank favourite.
I realize they grow BIG, however it takes many years for that. I bought him in a tropical tank as I know theyre mostly cold water. Like I said, he was completely fine until just recently.
Any help would be appreciated!
- Chris
