Nursing a YWG back to health

[Dawson_hatton]

Alright so i’m making this thread about this YWG I picked up at petco last night. got him for $12 due to chunks cut out of his fins and a missing eye due to fighting (probably about 3 other YWGs in one tank). so far he’s very explorative, he’s eating, and showing dominance to any fish that come near his cave. thought I’d make this thread to show progress with him and document a full rehabilitation.

Thats awesome! I'm cheering for him/her!

I guess without an eye he’s not much of a “watchman” anymore (dad jokes)

a little update, his eye is healed over however one of my bigger green legged hermit crabs keeps picking on him, and one of his fins is now messed up because of it. his other fins are healing back great however and he has a crazy appetite.

That's a good sign, hoping he makes a full recovery!
