red in the fins is both stress and bad water. Use the tub to tub method

this will move the fish away from bacteria and wastes in the water. Make sure there
is a bit of salt in the water to help heal and help osmotic pressure.

Just to be on the safe side, do the peroxide dip to make SURE to get rid of gyros and
dacs.

you CAN use mercurochrome on a swab on the wound. also, make sure the "tub" or
whatever is netted on the top so that fish doesnt jump. Ingrid

Well, morning came and the fish is still alive! It's swimming around
quite actively and looks pretty good. I still see blood in the tail
and fins. Most notably in the tail.

The water in the tank is a little cloudy this morning. I'm not sure if
that's a reaction from raising the temperature or if it's being caused
by the food from yesterday, but I'll do a partial water change in a
bit.
