Wow...that's a nasty wound. Just bump up the temp and add salt. Keep the water really clean and that should help. How's the FH acting?
Will my flowerhorn survive? CK bit him..pictures inside.

He'll be fine. Make sure you use salt in the water. While working at the NYA, I saw permit that were chewed up much more badly by sand tigers- the ones that weren't eaten pulled through, albeit with scars.
this is what I did to one of my fish who recently got his ass kicked badly...worse than yours...
I used methyline blue....salt (3-4tea spoon per 5gl)...temp around 90F...lots of air circulation...no feeding for a few days...water change daily...I treated the water and added salt before introduce it to the tank....... both salt and methyline were added proportion to the amount of water I took out...and how hez almost back to normal...
you could also use melafix and salt as combination...but you must pay close attention to the wounds...
