Jaxxnz Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 if you decided to fish keeping, then is wise to have a bottle of Melafix for use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just but the 5 more. He'll either be fine or die, the melafix won't make much of a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 I'd just but the 5 more. He'll either be fine or die, the melafix won't make much of a difference. Beside the out break of an infection that a non-invasive treatment would have prevented. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 I would be more concerned with who bit the fin off and if it was going to happen again before getting more fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 melafix only works on a few types of bacteria if it not those specific bacteria that is the problem then you may as well pour water in the water melafix reviews http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums/fis ... -work.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffy Posted October 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Yer thanks for that I was told it may not of been bitten it was just one of those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 If the tail was perfectly OK before it went in the tank chances are it did not just fall off all by its lonesome toddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
