Hi! So I recently bought a baby black ghost knife fish. When I got him I noticed his tail was a bit ragged, but I thought it was just from being tranported and stuff. So I’ve had him about three days now, and today he has like a line halfway down his body thats lighter colored, and his tail is all ragged and droopy. He has a good appetite and has been eating twice a day and he swims around fine, but he dosent look very good. I have most medications on hand but I’m not sure which ones are safe for him since he‘s scaleless and stuff. He’s in a ten gallon quarantine tank right now btw so no cross contamination with other tanks. Oh and before anyone says anything, I know he gets big and I have bigger tanks for him once he’s done quarantining, assuming he lives. Sorry the picture is not very good, its hard to get him out of his cave
