Aquila Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Add some salt, Aqua plus, and/or Melafix to the tank. Increase water changes over the next couple of week to insure that water is kept super clean. Also have a look around at what could have caused the injury and either adjust or remove it. hi my male electric male has some how damaged his head above the eye and it is all red i think it has been cut what should i do will it heal?

Matto Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 what kind of salt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquila Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 rock salt/sea salt. You can get its cheaper at the grocery store. Just make sure it uniodized. Not sure of the dosage at the moment. I think i remember something like 1 tbs every 5-10 gallons...but that seems a bit high. May need to do a search on this forum or google. If there are any scaleless fish in the tank, make sure you half the dosage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
