My aro has red spots disease and I dont know if it will survive it. It is currently 8"+ and the back part of the body has red spots on them. The scales are starting to come off and the tail and fins are also starting to rot. At first, I thought that the red spots were bruises from jumping, but noticed later that the red spots were inflamed and the scales were coming off. I have quarantined the fish and have given it anti-biotics, but I dont know if that is sufficient. Please advice if anyone has any input or experience on this. Do aros usually survive this disease?
Thanks in advance

Found in the website....this is exactly what happen to my Arowana now.....The word "INCURABLE" make me sleepless lar..

Red spots

Also called red erysipelas, it is almost incurable in Arowana. It usually happens while the Arowana is young due to malfunctions of the filtering system.

Symptoms:
The infection mostly happens near the tail. It begins with red dots. Later the infected areas swell and tend to warp. Finally the Arowana will die of ulceration as secondary infection sets in.

Treatment:
Try to raise the water temperature to 36 degree C (97 degree F). Give some antibiotic orally to your Arowana in addition to medication in the water. Do a 1/3 of water change daily adds raw salt or sea-additive of consistency of 5% and observe carefully.

Bro,
dun rush into adding more med for this idea will only worsen the situation. If the aro is doing well in the current dosage of medication, just maintain the water condition and hope it'll recover well. Slow but at least it's recovering.

Good luck.
