Does your fish have any history of being ill? He has almost recovered from injuries after getting stuck in a homemade divider.
How old is your fish (approximately)? I have had him for one year.
Is that fin rot???? The injury took his immunity down and made him more vulnerable to disease. How do I fix it? I cant put him in his own tank to the other heater and filter gets here, otherwise my corydoras will be in danger?
Please help! I can't put aquarium salt in yet because of the corydoras but what else can I do??
