NANFA-- Rosefin Shiners & Tail fin rot

I picked up three beautiful Rosefin Shiners last weekend in a creek about 25
miles north of Cincinnati (along with a Logperch). One of the shiners is
quickly losing it's caudal fin to some kind of rot. I have him in a tank by
himself and have treated with "Maracide" (for 3 days) from the pet shop with
no success. He's eating quite well and not acting sluggish [yet]. Any
suggestions?

Thanks,

Wade
