Purple firefish hurt

[GuilhermeLba]

My firefish just woke up like that

Was he attacked? Is he sick? What should I do?

Keep an eye on it to assure it does become a bacterial issue. One great thing about marine fish is their ability to heal and quickly naturally

How can I prevent that from happening? Is there any medicine?

You can use antibiotic such as maracyn 2, general cure or ruby rally but likely not needed

Unfortunately I cant find that product in my country. Im trying to raise his immunity with garlic on his flakes and just hoping for the better. Today he still looks well and healthy. I would that he healed up a lil bit, but it might be just my optimism. Thank u for the help!
