Anorea 144 Posted March 30, 2017 Oh no! Poor Fish! It looks like it was coagulated, so hopefully it's not too bad.Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are still thinking here but it looks like some was in his mouth at some point and it ruptured 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
susan 9 Posted March 31, 2017 Here's his mouth now. He's mouthing his food but spitting it back out. I'm just watching for new things as they come in case there's that will help. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was suggested in the back to use "meth blue" in the tank and if you can swap the inside of the mouth 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
susan 9 Posted March 31, 2017 My husband dosed the tank with Melafix yesterday while I was asleep. :/ Waiting on the silver. Here's his mouth today. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
susan 9 Posted March 31, 2017 The swelling has went way down and I can see a wound on the inside of his mouth. I don't know if it was something I missed the first time I tried to look in there (he wasn't being very cooperative.) or if it was caused by it maybe rupturing when he was spitting those clots. He's just cruising around the tank today no yawning or spitting. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shakaho 6,313 Posted April 1, 2017 He looks better. He might find soft food, like a gel food, easier to eat. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aditya2105 3 Posted April 1, 2017 Happy to hear this...So it healed bcoz of the melafix or something else was added?Sent from my XT1706 using Tapatalk 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
susan 9 Posted April 1, 2017 you can still see some red but it's not swollen anymore and he's eating soft food. If anything he's probably sick of seeing my face smashed against his livingroom window. lol. I'm not sure aditya. The only two things I have had in there was the salt which was changed out and then the melafix. Either way I'm glad it's healing. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
