Too early to see improvement?

My rescue betta, Apollo, has very bad fin rot that was due to his previous owner’s water quality. I’ve treated him with aquarium salt, Indian almond leaves, and frequent water changes. Attached is a side by side comparison of him 5 days ago, and him today. I honestly see slight improvement in his bottom fins, and his color is much brighter. However I could honestly be seeing things and being too hopeful. Curious as to what you all think.

The edges look a bit cleaner now. Another week or two should be starting to see some regrowth.

Update on Apollo: I think he’s a got a few more weeks before he looks brand new again. The bottom fins are completely healed. Just waiting for the top to grow in

He’s definitely a crown tail. And now he has red coloration that wasn’t there before.

You get a wound in a fraction of second and it takes weeks to heal.We are expecting a lot of improvement in a short time in our Betta. Apollo made fantastic progress, congratulations!!
