Default help sick aro.

my 17" jar is sick with cotton like tufts on its back. yesterday, i noticed tufts of cotton fungus, so today when i came home from the lfs/school, the jar was already a little bit tilted and the eyes sunken in, kinda slugish. i am currently treating it with maracyn like the store owner said. is that enough? or should i use more stuff? any advice please!!


should i see if it eats?

No harm to increase salt level to 0.3%.

Looks pretty bad. Add anti-fungi medications. And the magic medicine: Salt.
It is contagious. Prepare a Q.Tank if it is not alone. If you have no water test kit, just do a partial water change. Usual I will use the cheapest fungicide I always have on hand - methylene blue. But as advise, do it in a Q.Tank as it changes the pH and water chemistry pretty much.

The first picture looks more like cotton. Though the picture is blurred.
