Could this somehow be a bacterial infection or ulcers ?

I would try Kanaplex since it is readily absorbed through the skin and the wound had shown signs of healing initially using Sulfa. You can combine Kanaplex and Triple Sulfa.

Ph is 7.6. Since the 2nd betadine swab the wound looks to be stained and not oozing. Good thing I'm guessing?

I'd be willing to try kanaplex and the triple sulfa together. Should I stop doing the betadine swabs once a day?

I did have another bichir ordered, but put the order on hold until I figure out what is wrong with the main tank.

Depends on what the ooze is. Thought of "ninja turtles 3, secret of the ooze" as soon as I saw that. Lol!
