Hello,

I have 2 VATF, small ones, around 3,5 inch.
They are in a big enough tank, around 7x2x2, with a fuval fx5 and a eheim 2178.
The pollution levels are always nearly zero.
They live with a snook, a payara, red wolf fish and a bunch of feeders.

1 of the atf got hurt and by a attack of a other fish (that is not in the tank).
and now has bad looking skin.
It is healing slowly but the wound is kinda large. I dont want to move him, because it will cause stress.

All the fish (sorta) get along, but..
The other ATF is now attacking/chasing the wounded one. What do you guys think? let them mess with eachother and let it heal?

here are some pics of the injury.
