I woke up this moring to see that my arro and my catfish had a fight or something , cuz i see one of the aro s scales stuck in the catfish s spine and the aro s scales on his head is all fu=ck up. You guys think it ll heal? it looks sorta like dropsy or something. I dont know what happen, but the aro got owned . Should i just remove the damm catfish ?

i added melafix and added some salt, what else should i do?
thx
 
that sucks but a catfish is not worth an aro.
 
remove the catfish
and i don't think you need melafix or any other meds as of now
just keep the water clean, add some salt to calm your fish and bump up th temp by a few degrees
good luck
 
Dam that looks painful! Your aros scales remind me of the time my friends finger nails got ripped off. But anyways you should remove the catfish and hit it with some meds.
 
I would go ahead and double up on your water changes and dose with melafix. The remaining scales look raised and may be dislodged. The pristine water and melafix will help guard against any infections.
 
Eek! Hope it heals up nicely without any scaring. Like everybody else said, time to say byebye to the cat!!

MEOW!!!
