jn87 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 hi every one. we have a featherfin synodontas in a community tank, he has just recently rubbed up against something and has a decent graze down his side. We were wondering if we should treat with wunder tonic? we have juvenile discus in there aswell and dont wont them to get sick from treating him but dont know what else to do. Please help us as he is our favorite fish. sorry for photos he doesnt stay still for long. Cheers Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firenzenz Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Hi Synos are pretty resilient so it should heal by itself. You could try salts which wont do much or something like 'melafix' which in correct doses shouldn't bother the Discus. How do you think it happened-does the Featherfin have a decent hidey hole big enough to hide away? It is not uncommon for synos to burn themselves on heaters also as they try to hide behind them.
