Alright so im getting all kinds of use out of this forum today.
When I got home I noticed one of my yellow labs up at the top of the tank on his side. He doesnt seem to breathing hard and looks to have most of his fins in pretty good shape. I did notice after looking closer at him that his tail has been roughed up a bit and that on his left side (which is the side always facing down now) has a couple slaces that looked lets say raised up a bit? It just looks like maybe he got beat up a bit. Everyone else seems to be doing just fine. Water checks out good everyone feeding good. So my real question is if everyone would agree he just got beat up? Second what should i do with him. I dont really have a hospital tank (it got used for a planted tank haha) but I do have like a container thats maybe 2 gallons? Should I move him into there with some salt and an airstone and do daily water changes? Do they recover from stuff like this?
Sorry for all the questions at once but iv never kept agressive fish and never has any do this. When I was younger and had fish they just died!
