We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court at Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master. - Aeonflame What? Ridden on a horse? - Aeonflame 
    Yes - Aeonflame You're using coconuts! - Aeonflame What? - Aeonflame You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together. - Aeonflame So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercea, through... - Aeonflame 
    Where'd you get the coconuts? - Aeonflame We found them - Aeonflame Found them? In Mercea? The coconut's tropical! - Aeonflame AeonFlame sent them to us in a message not unlike these. So be off with you. - Aeonflame its always good to give your english teacher an apple - genocidex

    It looks like a wound. Maybe he scraped himself on those sharp rocks. I would put him in qt with some melafix and/or pimafix until he healed up.

    Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen
    I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
    Smaug, you're here a lot just to say it's a waste of your time, poor baby, I bet you don't even know how big a loser you are, and how much we laugh at you and your foolish attempt to give your life meaning. Quit drinking, get a life, go take care of your family, grow up!

    I'm not 100% on this but looks like ulcers to me. I'm no expert on their treatment, but large arowana will get lip ulcers which look very similiar. his condition doesn't look very good at all. I hope you can do a bit of further research into this and find out the cause. IME they show up when wounds take longer to heal than usual (clean freshwater helps the best) and can take awhile to heal up.
