Yes that will be fine it's a tonic salt if you have it, if not household salt, one tablespoon to every 5 gals, but add it gradually some today and add the rest tomorrow, or in 4 hours.
Can you increase aeration as well.
If you have the interpet salt follow there instructions of how much to add to the tank.

thanks wilder , you have been an amazing help and thanks to rob w

just filling the tank back up now ,after a 60% water change and adding a little bit of salt , only a .1% mix .

captain peacock is gone but will never be forgotten , as soon as he touched the water , he was gone .

we just had a look at him and he has no tail left and is a real bad state ,he looks peacefull now and no longer in pain .

will be keeping an extra carefull eye on all the fish , and will be going to see the lfs tomorrow
