Question
I have a green serum in my tank and it is losing its fins.  what do i do?

Answer
Hi Melissa: raise the water temperature to about 82-86 degrees...but do it slowly... add aquarium salt to your tank per its instruction label, and you will want to get a good medication for your fish... Tetracycline or Malachite green would work well... you could also try MALAFIX but it doesn't seem to work as well... please keep me posted... dave
