No, it didn't work, keep playing around with it, you'll get it. You might have like 1 letter wrong and it messed up.

Yea, you got it now.

Looks like a bacterial lesion. I have no experience yet with Melafix...

I had a black phantom tetra that had a similar bacterial infection. Treat it now because I ignored it, it spread and I lost the fish.

Definately a cut or abrasion which has become infected with bacteria. very common in big cichlids. With Melafix you should see it start to clear up within days.
