haven't posted on here in a while but just wanted to share my new flowerhorn with MFKers.

bought over a month ago, he was sold at a discounted price since he had a deep hole in his head but now recovering nicely, almost at 100%.

what did you do to cure the hole?
nothing special... just took regular care, weekly water changes, not overfeeding..

i believe it was just a scar that was healing so it didn't take any special medications.

Gosh, he's beautiful. A testiment to fresh clean water bing the best medicine!
Too many people want to add salt, Melafix, Primafix, etc. But then they don't bother to do big water changes. Great fish and great job.
