i just got my fish not too long ago and i realized now that it's fins are frayed...?

i cant tell if its a fungus or if he was just bullied from the other oscars before i got him.

if somebody explains to me how to put up a picture that's saved to my documents, i can put one up... his tail is a lot worse than his top fins, its like missing pieces his top fins look pretty spiny, and the back part of his top fins are almost gone..

can anybody tell me the differences between the 2, bites or fungus?

If you look on the home page there are some video tutorials that will show you how to add photos to the forum.

Quite often, fish can get frayed fins if there are quite a few fish in the tank, fin nipping is quite common, when this happens, you normally get tatty tailfins, or may be small chunks taken out of the fins. However, if all of the fins are like this, then it could be down to water quality.

If it is a fungal infection that you normally see some kind of growth around the affected area. Post some photos and we will have a look

You will have to upload to Photobucket, and then copy and paste the IMG code from Phoobucket, to the thread!

Look at the last two video tutorials on this page, this is what you'd need to do if you want to post photos on here
