randomsam1001 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 its been there for just over a week, he is by himself and he was being chased when he was in the big tank. this started out white but has been getting worse for the past few days, turning red.

Adrienne Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 It could be a cut that has become infected or ulcerated. Have a look at this page - it suggests melafix as the first treatment. Melafix is a good first treatment for a number of skin ailments. http://www.mchportal.com/fishkeeping-ma ... -fish.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
