Tank size:5 gal
** Does anyone have any ideas s to how to treat this?
Current meds: Pimafix 2.5ml 1x daily for 3 days so far
Salt bath (2tsp salt/ 1 gal h2o) 1x daily for 5 min for 2 days so far
Stress Coat 2.5ml 1 time so far
pH:6.5

Fish Symptoms (include full description including lesion, color, location, fish behavior): Started out as a small
white pimple about 10 days ago, on 7th day i noticed it had "opened" into a sore and area was swollen. on days 8 & 9 the sore has enlarged. "Elvis" seems tired. Came to the surface at feeding time tonight but didn't eat any betta pellets. Spends most of the time on bottom (in his cave) but comes to the surface for air when I open the tank lid.
Volume and Frequency of water changes: 1x a month 50%, dose of stress zyme+
Chemical Additives or Media in your tank: Treatment so far: 2.5ml 1x daily for past 3 days,
