Hi,
Could you give more info? Where do you live (determines meds available.) What kind of fish? How did it get fin rot? What are your tank readings? Do you have a Q- tank? (Antibiotics will kill your bio filter. You don't want to cycle your main tank again.)
I had a dragon goby get injured and severe fin rot as a result. I treated with Maracyn I and II following the instructions, and it worked like a charm.
Very healthy, fully finned Dragon Goby. Took about a week to treat and a month to regrow the fins.
Good luck!

I strongly recommend Melafix! I had a bout of fin rot with some new angelfish that I bought for my wife's new 46 bowfront - moved them to a Q tank and melafixed em Problem gone!
