The etiology of   is caused by fine bacteria infection caused by poor water quality. The fins of the diseased fish are rotten and the skin is dry and dull. Sometimes, it may be that the fish bite each other, and the fins are damaged and infected by bacteria.

Prevention and treatment: 0.02 grams of furacilin powder can be used, dissolve in 10 kilograms of water, wash diseased fish for 10 minutes. You can also choose 5 furazolidone tablets, dissolve in 100 kg water and wash the diseased fish for 30 minutes. Or choose 8 tablets of oxytetracycline, dissolve in 100 kg of water and wash the diseased fish for 30 minutes.

If the rotten fin disease is not treated in time, it will also spread the disease to the fish. The fins are mildly decayed and infected by bacteria. The edges of the fins of the diseased fish are milky white, followed by decay, and the fins are incomplete, especially the caudal fins. Sometimes the fins become broomlike, and in severe cases, the whole caudal fins rot away.

Prevention and treatment:

(1) use 1 gram of furacilin or furazolidone, dissolve in 10 kg of water, wash diseased fish for 10-20 minutes, and relieve the disease after repeated administration.

(2) release 5 tablets of triamcinolone in 100 kg water and wash the diseased fish for 30 minutes.

(3) washing and disinfecting 8 tablets of oxytetracycline 5-Mel in 100 kg water can prevent juvenile or adult fish from being infected with the disease.

(4) wash with gentamicin, usually put 2 sticks in the aquarium of 100*50*35CM.

(5) dissolve 0.1 grams of potassium permanganate in 10 kilograms of water and wash the diseased fish for 10 minutes.
