Loc Tran Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I was looking around my zebra tank today and see how they going. Then I saw one zeb have this weird spot on his/her fin. Can someone tell me if this is sign of fin rot or just bite mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricksonAquatics Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Looks like someone took a chunk out of that fin to me. Fin rot will usually always have a discolored edging (clear, black, or red is most common). That’s how it was on my Betta at least 🙂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it should heal up good, keep stable water parameters and good schedule for wcs, etc. @Loc Tran 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always do 30% water change twice every week for both my l46 and l236 tank 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do 25% on my 20, and once on my 10 every week. It helps so much. Never against a good wc. So helpful. Whoever said that’s to many wcs are bad, they do one every other week 😁.

EricksonAquatics Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Just keep an eye on it. Sometimes bites like that can turn into fin rot, but I wouldn’t worry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will, as long as the fish still eating when I feed it then I will not worry about it for now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
