His wounds are looking worse rather than better over the last couple of days, do you think it will heal? If it does will it scar? The worst 1 has turned white and his anal fin is almost missing sorry for the bad pics I can only use my iphone

Looks like it could be fungus. Try Tea Tree oil or Melafix.

It doesn't look like cotton? Do you think it will scar? How much tea tree oil do you use?

Lots n lots of WCs! 20 is kinda high for wound treatment you gotta keep the nitrate as low as possible

Yea I will do 1 in the morning, I think it a bit high because I have been leaving the pellets in there as long as possible in hopes that he will eat them

Melafix is basically diluted Tea Tree oil. It's 1/2 teaspoon oil to 16oz water I think. It's a great natural antifungal/antibiotic.

don't mean to be off topic but what size tank is he in now? thinking of doing a growout with aft as well : )

 

[monsterkeeper87]

Just done a 80% water change and treated with aquarium salt and eSHa2000 so hopefully he will start to improve fairly quickly now.

He is in a 100g ATM but just picked up a 220 cheap so that buys me more time to build the 8'x4'
