Possible start of hith?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The bubble thing popped after the first few days.
I fed the epsom soaked food till the meds arrived on Monday. From there I fed the hexshield twice a day Monday- Friday. Should I stop now?

This is how he looks now. I’m guessing this will take time to heal over then next few months?

Oh, and both females have been removed before I started treatment.

Yes, IME 5 days at twice a day should do the trick. If needed, you can always do a second treatment if you don't see any improvement over time. Keep the water uber clean, and the pits/holes should begin to heal over the next few weeks. Good luck!

Ok, thank you! I’ll be sure to keep on top of the water.
 
Watching HITH heal can be like watching paint dry. It's often a very slow process, but I bet that under your care in another 30 days you will start seeing some serious healing taking place. The good thing is that you caught it early, understand what the main cause was, and took steps to resolve it.
