Actually it’s neither fin rot or crowntail. I’ve been having problems regulating the temperature the past week. Turns out the thermometer I got for the tank reads bad. I had to stick my food thermometer in there last night to check the temp and my thermometer for the tank is off by 5 degrees...

Thankyou so much. I will probably do 30% every 3-4 days. I don’t wanna stress him with too much water changes but I love to keep his tank very clean. I’m going to get new conditioner and try a master test kit as well. Will update with pictures in a few days to see a change. I really appreciate...

I am using two test strips. The regular one and ammonia ones. The ammonia is always safe on the test strips. You would recommend the master kit instead of strips?

The stress coat seemed well. What conditioner would you recommend? I had no idea about it hurting their organs. As far as his fins, this is what I’ve been struggling with. I’m at a loss as to what is going on. Crow tail or fin rot I watch him daily and do my best to keep everything clean and...
