It is not necessarily "Fin Rot" but it is a sign that you are not looking after the fishes water properly. The basic rules for keeping fish sucessfully are as follows. :- 1 inch of fish must have at least 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank must have a permanently running 'cycled' filter. Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. If you start off right now with a large water change, and then stick to the above rules your fish may recover.
