Not sure what else you can do besides what you're trying?

GL!!

Me neither, but I've had fish live for several weeks after the pineconing. Very suprised as to how and why it happened as the water was fine and the rainbows are the heartiest things in my tank. I'm just sad because they are my favorite fish with lots of personality and I don't want to prolong any unneccessary suffering if that maybe the case. I think I will try the Pima/Mela of the the next 7 days if it continues to live and then put it down if no improvement.

Thanks for the support!
