Cotton/fluffy Growth On Angel Fins

[indir-emir]

He sure is! His still got a bit of the cotton stuff on his side fin, hope that one falls of too.

What would be the best thing to help his fins grow back?

Also, can PIMAFIX cause corys to die? Ive lost 2 cories in 12 hours now, every other fish was fine. Water is perfect, no ammonia or nitrite. Could have bought em sick though (seemed fine to me ). They were 2 corydoras juliis. Got one left now along with my 2 bronze cories which are a breeding pair

Never heard of pimafix killiing fish.
it could be a bacterial infection that killed the corys.
Did they show any symtoms.

Keep an eye on the fungus that is still on the fish. If it gets worse then treat it immediately with anti-fungal medication. You can put some medication directly on the fish rather than treat the whole tank. Just carefully catch the fish in a net and lift it out of the water. Put a drop or two of medication on the fungus/ wound and wait for a few seconds. Then put the fish back in the water.

Keep the water clean and the fish well fed and the fins will grow back by themselves. However, they might not grow back perfectly and sometimes the fins grow back in a funny shape. It won't affect the fish but it can look a bit odd.

Pimafix is unlikely to kill Corydoras.

Must have just been the corys. They were fairly new.

The fungus thing has completely gone off the angel. And man oh man does he look much happier. His all over the tank now Even with his dodgy fins lol. He enjoys exploring the new plants now (see planted tank section to see new tank look if interested) so im happy with that Every fish seems happier

Doing a water change tonight so that should help him out along it the other fish.

Thank you for all the help everyone
