Red Finned Shark

[pgtips]

Not sure if i should be worried by my red finned shark looks like he has caught a scale on his head.

basically looks white where you can see the scale poking up.

Anything to worry about or will it just get better by itself? he is eating fine and swimming about ok.

Cheers

Consider putting some stress coat in to enhance the recovery time. He should be fine.

It's just a small bruise. My platy has one too and she's fine. You'll be ok. B)

glad you think he'll be fine though

Just be sure to vigorously monitor his progress and look out for any signs of infection.

Wow. My platy has it in exactly the same place. Apparently their heads are very vulnerable. Anyway I added some melafix and it's looking better now.
