hey everybody so he must got in fight with my firemouth hes cut up he was kinda hiding in corner kinda looking up at the light he swims but seems to fall every 2 feet i dont know if hes saveable or done for the cuts are on this forhead and his gills known on body and he doesnt apper to be missing any fins or anything so i took him out put him in 10 gallon bucket and ran a airhose to him put some freshwater with some aqua something that sopuse to coat open cuts so they heal so anything else to do keep him alive im going to go get my 10 gallon from my friends tonight set him up in there if hes still alive when i get bak :1zhelp:
 
my update hes back to balancing hes not on one side anymore breathing relaxing how long do i wait before i put him back in couple days or later on tonight
 
I would keep him in a hospital tank until fully healed, keeping up with daily water changes to keep his water as clean as possible.Reintroducing him now in his weakened state will do him only harm as he is easier to attack and does not need any stress to inhibit his healing and open him up to more sickness. Also, if a secondary infection develops, he is already qt'ed and it will take less medication and your healthy fish won't be exposed to any meds they don't need.
 
unfortunatly by the time i came back today to set the hospital tank up and put him in it the water in bucket got to cold and ended him the rest the way i have seriously bad luck with the eletric blue jd
