Substrate issues with Bichirs.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
A picture of the abrasion may be nice. Could also be caused by colliding/rubbing with hardscape.
It seems Swollen and there is a pimple like bump that I thought was a scale...I am very worried. He acts normal and eats like a pig, roaming aroud the tank like he always does. the LFS suggested a medicine called NITROFUR.

Update: changed the substrate mostly, few bits of black gravel left but doubt they will be an issue. Fish and I are both stressed. As a moderately New fish keeper never wanted to quit the hobby this bad LoL. Waiting for the water to clear so that I can do some maintenance and add more conditioned water. Half of the plants are gone hope it doesnt ruin the tank ...
