I bought 6 female guppys from pet smart Wensday and all them look to be fine but this one it keeps losing parts of its fin it almost looked like fungus at first, i think its starting to spread on the body as you can see in todays picture its starting to turn peach. Shes currently in my QT/hospital tank

Heres a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=IC2WFei0oyg

sorry for the bad resolution.If you need more pictures i can easily get some no problem.
 
Fin rot comes to mine. I use salt in mine as mollies ans guppies seem to have this issue.
 
I've not had luck treating fin rot once it reaches the body.

I'd do a big water change, do salt as mentioned above and also medicate.. I personally use Interpret fungus and Fin Rot if I medicate, but usually at the first signs not so advanced. I know some people use other medications for this as well, maybe someone else will chime in.
 
Dead and the molly got eaten by snail just his carcus left
 
Sorry. Are you're remaining fish in a separate tank? Might want to possibly do a water change and slight salting as a preventative measure for them.
 
I wouldn't use salt without removing the apple snails first... Snails and salt don't mix...
