    Hi,

    Can someone please enlighten me how to differentiate between a fin/tail being nibbed off by a fish and the diease, fin-rot?

    Thanks

    eh, one is injury, the other is infection
    so basically, after the injury, if the immune system of the fish is not up to scratch, you'll see infection

    DEA,

    Actually, what I mean is that if I see a broken fin, how do I differentiate the difference of a torn fin resulting from fin-root verus nibbed fin?

    Is there any visual difference? The reason is if it is fin-rot, I will have to treat the fish/tank while if it is nibbed by other fish, I will have to find the culprit!
