a good medication would be coppersafe by mardel laboritories. Thta can be kept in the tank for up to a month (but should see results within 20 days) fr more info go here http://www.nunnie.com/fungus.html

plenty of stess coat as well. it has protective slime to help the fish be less stressed and heal quicker.

I've found that Melafix works pretty well in these situations.

Like I said, I use the Melafix, but if the fish is at the point it is dying, it may be too late to do much good.
