Its been a long time since I had problems with and fish disease. I consider myself lucky:dance:

Anyway, I bought a Foxface Rabbit fish. and 3 weeks later he is showing some signs of fin rot.

My questions are this.

How effective is giving Maracyn orally? If I soak nori in a solution of medication and and then feed the fish will this be effective?

I just think the whole QT option is very stressful for the fish. Chase it down for 30 min, acclimation, medication, now in a 20 gallon?!?!? Then back to the main tank after many water changes etc.....
