First you have to determine what causes the infection bro...

If it's external injuries caused by fights, then no big worries. But from the video, it seems like the scales are rotting off like tissue paper. I have experienced such symptoms on my aro comm before and lost one of them due to late treatment.

I will suggest putting aquamedic multicure to treat the whole tank as it is more of a bacterial infection rather superficial wounds. Try not to add yellow powder direct to treat the whole tank as it will kill your bbs. Also 5kg of salt?!!! How big is your tank btw? Seems super cramped in the video.

The key to recovery is to maintain good water perimeter and proper medication.

Do keep us updated on your progress bro

take that fella out immediately and dose in API tetracycline fast. Keep the water clean and use some from the original tank. Don't hesitate, isolate the fella immediately.
