so i got this kenyi who got real beat up by some other fish. now its in the breeder cage laying on the ground for the past 2 days.
its missing about 50% of its scales.
is there anything i can do to help it out? it seems to have a good will to live. any meds? i don't really want to kill it. it still breaths.

Sorry for your loss. These Kenyi are almost impossible to kill. These are one of the toughest of the africans. I would be afraid to add one to my peacocks. Which one did it?
