Disaster, my fish got HIT !!!

[basile]

I'm not sure if he hit himself or if my Yellow Tang got him , but that gash worries me. Anything i can or should do ?


-Look on the lower belly between the black bars. happened last night i'd say. nothing special happened, he still eats.

Fairly deep too.

Looks like he got tail whipped by a fellow tang. They don't call them surgeon fish for nothing. I would use some conditioner with the slime coat replacement stuff then just monitor for infection. He is very healthy so I would loose sleep over it. May leave a scar but that goes with the whole convict theme.

He looks healthy enough to overcome this wound.

Thanks guys

Thanks guys , my first reflex was to put him in a QT but he seems relaxed, he eats and someone said if he's doing all that, put him in a QT would probably stress him and i'd loose him because of it; so i'll leave him alone for now. he's still very active and the yellow tang is not agressive with him anymore, use to be when i first introduced him but now they seem to each leave each other alone. Anyway i'll keep his regime up he's a pig as you can see from his picture quite fat like his buddy the Foxface, "Mulder" I'll put some garlic on his grazer ring and dried algaes.


Mulder;

They're all fat
