Well I took the cap off the filter intake of my Canister filter.. and somehow my Flowerhorn injured it self.. The injury is on the kok.. Its been about a a couple weeks now and it still hasn't healed.. The injury is only like.. half a centimeter big.. Will it heal?
 
Should be fine, just give it a little time to heal.

did you take any measures to help the healing process yet? Add aquarium salt and raise the temp in the tank. this should help out.


Not a fan of salt.. but I do daily water changes for all my tanks.. and the temp is around 83 degrees.
 
Yeah, add salt, raise the temp and keep up the daily changes. Maybe add some antibacterial meds so it wont get infected. I just care for a sick fish for a lady with a large open wound on its side, took about a month to fix. :)
 
We don't even know what the injury looks like. Can we see some pictures before we all can even say it will heal with this and that and so on? :D
 
Hmm, might leave scar on it after it healed. And is that a pleco behind your FH? How can he tolerate one...I wish mine could. :D

Scar?!?! T__T


I just put in the pleco hoping my fh wasn't a brute. Its been a month now and its still alive. :)
