I have been keeping a close eye on him. He is back in the show tank now. He is just kind of hanging out not as active as usual but hopefully he is back to himself soon. He looks perfectly normal now except for the nips on the ends of his tail fin but they are healing up.
I havnt really posted in this thread yet but have been reading it and watching for updates on the ornate since the beginning.
very happy to hear he's getting better!
