Please help

Tsev03 · Jul 20, 2017

just came home to find my wrasse stuck in palys. They were in the corner of the tank. Had started growing to the glass. I guess he tried to swim thro there and got stung. I had to move the rock to free him. He looks terrible. He is my favorite fish. Please help. I don't know what to do for him. Here's pictures of him and the palys

No signs or symptoms yesterday?

I'd prep a few dip and qt/ treatment.
A closer picture I'd you can.

Dang. Sorry.

If I may suggest vitamin therapy for the stings and over all health. I would also suggest fining something Like this link. bind this with sachem focus and feed with frozen.

Your welcome, since the wounds are superficial I am not suggesting any meds, the b12 will help with energy and the vitamin C will help with stress and healing of the wounds. The rest of the tank will love it too

Yes, the vitamin will be ingested by the fish. If your in need of product you can hit the vitamin specialty store and pick up some powdered C and liquid B-12 instead of waiting 3 to 5 days. use a 1/4 teaspoon of the C and 4 drops of the b-12.

Not wanting to disagree my friend, I've just never heard of paly poison in a fish. I have those palys. And yea. I could be totally wrong.

not at all, just treating the stings and general stress.

I think he looks a lot better. His color is a lot better. But I still need to figure out why this happened. Is it because of the palys? Should I move them to a different tank? Is there something in my tank that I don't know about? Is another fish terrorizing him after I go to bed? I just don't know what to do

If the paly's were in that location long enough to grow onto the glass then I'm suspicious about the fish being chased too. I know this is generalizing, but wrasses aren't known for being klutzy around rockwork.

Tsev03 · Jul 20, 2017

I guess I'm going to stay glued to the tank till I find out what the problem is.

saltyfilmfolks · Jul 20, 2017

Fingers crossed.

Tsev03 · Jul 20, 2017

Lights r out now. I can't find him. I know where a lot of my fish sleep but I'm not sure about him. So scared I'm going to wake up and find him dead [emoji20][emoji20][emoji20][emoji20]
