Isit sick?

You may want to read the first few posts of this thread and try the remedies.

Yellow Powder, methylene blue (interpet)??

and im not sure if its finrot but it's fins does look a lil abnormal!
if i applied the medication and there isnt any finrot, will it have side effects!

Most aquarium shops carry these two. The yellow powder is a small silver sachet that has a goldfish picture on it, and costs about $1.50 (maybe less) a satchet.

for your fish, try to use more ketapang leaves, yellow powder, salt and internal bacteria.

When I asked the uncle for the dosage he just told me to add a little (until the water is yellow), as it's a very strong med.

Sprinkle a little, or if you want, just drop a few grains.
