Backstory on this fish is that it is a new acquisition 3 weeks ago. It is too big for my qt, so I added it directly to the fowlr and started cupramine on 7-2-23. I haven't seen any signs of ich or velvet the entire time in any fish. This issue just became noticeable today, and the fish is not using this fin much, but is swimming okay. This fish, and a couple others are scraping on the rocks. I did a 40% water change, and am running carbon to remove the cupramine. My thought is a bacterial infection, and may start Pimafix, but I would like some feedback. The other fin is okay, and there are no noticeable fin issues with other fish. All are eating very well. Thank you!
