My fish seems healthy he is eating and swimming no other signs of sickness.  I tested my water using the API test kit and they are all fine.  I feed him four pellets a day and did a water change on the weekend.  I have had him only three weeks.  I don’t want to treat him if he is not sick but his tail looks different from when I bought him.  If he is sick what are my next steps

White areas can be a sign that his fins are starting to heal what I would do is small daily water changes for a week that will help speed up the healing process if you notice the fins are still receding after a week then I would do a course of maracyn or kanaplex most important thing with fin rot is good water quality and good nutrition that  I add would also add some frozen or live brine shrimp or daphnia to his diet
