Hi, one year ago my flowerhorn suffered from HITH but recovered. The holes covered up but left pits. He’s been fine up until now where I found the pit in his head to be pink and swollen. I Immediately did a water change and went to see if there was any other changes in behaviour or eating habits. He seems to be doing well and acts normally. His poops normal and all looks fine. The next day however, the swollen spot on his head seemed to have popped or something, as it is now red and has reopened the hole in his head. I tried thinking about anything I’ve done different to his tank and the only thing I could think of was changing the brand of slime coat I give him. After a few days I noticed the hole had Been covered up in what looks like puss? Other than the hole in his head he seems happy and well. I just wanted to post this in case it could be anything serious. Any information that any of you have is appreciated. Thanks.
