^no, not worried about my water. ..just seemed excessive and a huge amount. But, after this incident, i looks to be what is needed. I realize how little water I was changing before...learned something at least during all this at least.
The gar looks to have made a full recovery and was eating massiveore off the sandbend this am. However, i may have 2 completely blind tems now. But, they were still able to find food. I really thought the gar was not gonna make it. He isn't shedding any more skin. I'm going to keep up on the aggressive water changes.
