My DG is sick

My DG has fish fungus I think. He has a big white cottonlike patch on his head. I have never had a sick fish before. What should I do? I do not have a quaritine tank. What are the necessary steps I need to take to help my DG get better? How can I protect all my other fish? My aquarium info is update if anybody wants to check my water parameters

Any Advice welcome

I am sorry to hear your DG is not feeling well.

Since you don't have a q-tine tank the only way is to do partial daily water changes to keep the water clean.

I cheap q-tine is to use a plastic tub with a cheap filter, heater and airstone. That's all you need.

Do I need Medicate my tank at all. I read on the website about fish diease that people recommend Using Maracyn for this. Should I just do daily water changes. Any more advice. I had a cycled already. My water parameters are good. I have only had this fish for 7 days.
