Hey guys,
So I came home from work earlier this week and to my scoly flipped over in the sand. I picked him up and fixed him but noticed some damages to him. The following night the same thing happened but the damage was a lot worse. I moved him to a different area because I think my pistol shirmp is grabbing him and pulling him next to his burrow and in the process flipping him. I had today off so I finally got to see all the damage first hand and it a lot worse than what I originally thought. Any ideas if he will make it or what I can do to help him heal. I currently pulled him out and dipped him. I have had him for the past 4 months and he was doing great until this.

Low flow and light is about all you can do, maybe place in acclimation box so it doesn't get further aggravated..

although not as severe as yours the scoly in my avatar has been damaged multiple times by crabs tearing the flesh and being covered in sand by my crazy fish, it has always healed and bounced back so there is hope yours will heal.
