I just moved my second baby channa maru into a new aquarium.75 gallon aquarium I think? (We don't really use gallon in my place)Just one day after being moved,the fish fin is bleeding and rotting including decoloration.I suspect that it is fin rot but I never face bleeding fin.My another channa maru placed in separate tanks is doing great.Someone please help me... I also attach pictures of my healthy channa maru compare to the one that is sick

Looks like both fins. Would suggest posting some water parameters. If it’s poor water then clean water should fix it. If not able to do then consider some triple sulfa. Any aggression b/w the channa?
 
Is the new tank cycled?

I think it's because of poor water.ph is ok. From all fish that I had kept before that face fin rot,only one survive.I'm pretty sure that I do everything right maybe I'm missing something during the treatment.So how do you deal with fin rot? 25%,50%,75%,100% water change? What is triple sulfa,never heard about that before. Hope you can help me.
 
Would get a test kit and start checking ur water parameters. I would do 50% water changes twice a week. Treat with a dechlorinator.

Triple sulfa is an antibiotic used for fin rot. Although good clean water can make a difference.

So bleeding fin is part of fin rot?

It can be if it’s severe or if it’s septicemia. Or from aggression other tankmates.
