I have had my German Blue for almost half a year now. She is in a 10 gallon tank with a South American Bumblebee catfish (they have never had a problem). Ever since I got her, I have been doing 50% water changes every week. One week I had to skip the water change and noticed her pectoral fins had finrot. I did the water change the next week and noticed it had gone. Are my 50% water changes keeping this fish's fins from rotting away? I cannon vacuum the substrate as it is very fine sand which will all get sucked up the pump. The water temp. is 83 degrees and I have Indian almond leaves to lower ph and release tannens.
I forgot to mention that this week I did a water change yet she still got finrot. I also did not have any more almond leaves which could have been the problem.
