sorry for the late reply. tank is a 12 gallon (small 2 feet tank) and quarantine container is 8 gallon. only 2 GF in the main tank. The other GF is fine. Both tank n container using OHF heavily padded with sponges and bio rings.

dumped the infected GF into the 8 gallon. Didnt use the main tank bcause meds will uncycle the tank. and changing 50% of water once every two days or even once a day is painstaking even for 12 gallon. Put in salt but not yet use any meds yet, any suggestion? searched the WWW for pom pom infection but come out nothing.

Infected GF is eating greedily as ever and behave like normal.

Err...... can i just cut off the infected pompom portion??? it looks like it is going to stay there forever......
