I have an oscellaris that I believe has fin and tail rot. Her tail fin and pectoral fin are the ones with issues. I have treated the tank for fin and tail rot twice for at least seven days and there is no change in her fins. Is there something else that is similar to fin and tail rot? She is otherwise acting normally and eating fine. Thanks. I am attempting to attach a picture but you can’t see much in it.

Ill be honest, I cannot identify any tail or fin rot on any of the fins from this picture. I see a slight gray line on the one pectoral fin, but thats it.
 
What is the evidence of fin rot?
Normal ocellaris clownfish have a clear edge on their fins that is quite noticeable. Is this what you are concerned about or is there more damage than what we can see in the picture?

Cant see anything that sticks out other than one little nip. Not bacterial issue
 
Do you have another clown in the tank?
What have you tried treating?
I don’t see anything in that pic as others have mentioned - closer and clearer pics would help though.
 
Sometimes, a short video helps us see more of what you are seeing in person.

Thanks all. Here is short video. The frayed fins are the tail fin and pectoral fin. After treatment they look the same, though at least not worse. Just wondering if it could be anything else. Thanks.

Here is a short video that you may be able to see it better.

The fish looks really good to me - active and alert. Is there another clownfish in the same tank? If so, I would suspect minor aggression.
