Just keep up your regimen and if you caught it early enough, the fish should be okay. Some of the visible damage to the skin might be irreversible, but the fish can still enjoy a good life.

Look for sources of stray electrical current in your tank. If diet isn't the cause, this could be. Use of activated cabon has been linked to it too, so if you use it, you may want to stop for a time.
