We found that using the combo was what finally got rid of Aslan's reoccuring finrot and with Rid-Fungus being herbal, I didn't mind adding some. The thing was he never showed fungal finrot signs, but it kept coming back anyway when we did just triple sulfa.

It does sound like you're dealing with bacterial finrot though.

The finrot is healing VERY nicely. If it comes back, I'll add the Rid-Fungus as well. His tail has grown quite a bit over the last week. If you check out the pictures in this thread, you can see where one part of his tail seems to stick out further than the rest. The tail has grown out to close to that point

After, oh, 8 days of everything improving/looking great all it took was a few hours after the filter went in for it to come back. Got the Rid-Fungus to add with this next batch of meds. Ahhhhhhhh, the fun, wonderful life of treating fin rot Since Deuce came home with fin rot and has been on fish meds (including food) I haven't been able to give him blood worms or cyclopeeze or anything else yet. I'm sure he'll like them, he even seems to like his anti-bacterial fish food
