the oscar ignores everything because ther is no one that will be able to stand up to him for a long time..... the gt is aggressive but nothing besidees the usual display of dominance just a little chase here and there but never got to rough.... im still nto sure what could have happened?????jiant2520;4797581;4797581 said:

Hold off on feeding, when you see if it gets active... put a small amount of food, then if it eats gradually increase feedings. Right now, it'll only foul up the water faster. It'll be fine without food until it shows signs of improvement.
ok thanks again but it doesnt seem to improve or get worst it seems like its just resting and if it were to make a full recovery do you think its skin would grow back to normal and look how he used to if so how long will thins take????Gatorxxx420;4798208;4798208 said:
Ok , this is the situation. Leave the fish alone untill it looke like it's improving, don't feed it, leave it alone. It might make it it might not. Whene you read posts about aggressive cichlids they are posted from years of experiance. These fish can and will kill each other over terratory, mates or just for the hell of it. Let it be.

It could be anyone of the tank mates. This is the unfortunate side of this hobby, but all you can do at this point is periodically check the fish. Try to not stress the fish out anymore than it is already. Like I said, I had a Bala Shark that was badly hurt, bleeding and near death recover. That could have easily went either way, I hope yours recovers too. If it does, I'd feed them 3-4 small feedings per day, full bellies may deter them from fighting.
