Whats the best way to treat Clown Knives for bumps in the night and scratches. Also what is their regroath rate like. Are they fast healers? Mine has some scratches and I just want to take care of it. :(
 
I wasnt sure what precautions I should take. Just dont want to hurt my fish. Would melafix be fine to use as well. I've added some aquarium salt after I did my water change. Do you know if they are fast healers? Thanks
 
dont worry about it they will heal in a few days
 
After occasional fighting with between my 2 CK, I usually turned up the temp to about 84 degree, do water change with some aquarium salt and in about 2-3 days, you can't even tell there were any scratches and torn fin. They heal very very fast..raising the temp increase their metabolism.

aquarium salt is definately a good idea...
 
Clean water has always worked when my knives scuffle....Salt might not be a bad idea though.
