WillskE Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 just saw today that theres a patch missing on the flying fox, there was the bit of skin hanging off, never had hole in head before so not sure if it is? and is it contagious?

alanmin4304 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Looks more like damage from a hard object or a tougher fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillskE Posted December 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 ah thats more of relief then hoping it is a injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Yeah, looks much more like a scrape. Probably got startled and hit his head. I don't think they tend to get HITH though, that's more of a cichlids thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 I've had the same happen to mine a few times.. and they have come right every time. Just a scale that have come off or something. Nice moss wall! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice moss wall! haha thanks, always been wanting to do it, actually turn out pretty good, its slowly covering up the mesh now the only thing about a moss wall is that it gathers alot of "dust" so if i was to give it a pat the tank will be filled with bits and stuff everywhere if left alone it looks real nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 My female killiefish regularly had a pale blotch of one sort or another where I presume she made contact with something in an effort to dash away from the horny male. It always healed in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
