Howdy folks,
Attached is a picture of my long fin albino bristlenose. His fin tip was almost completely severed, probably from being at the edge of a decoration when I was cleaning.:ssad: The injured part is swollen and red and just hanging from a thread of skin. The rest of his fin looks ok. Should I treat the tank with anything or just let nature take it's course? There are loaches in the tank as well as other fish and the tank would have to be torn down to capture the bristlenose, so treating him in a hospital tank would be a project. Still, if you folks think he needs meds, I can do it.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
