Ok, thank You!! Will be doing a water change tonight/ scrubbing biofilm/ cleaning the filter. If in a week it has not healed, I will add salt.

So my brother told me that one of my fish looked bloody, and because he's much younger than me I know he can be a little bit dramatic. But I went over to my tank and realized he was right! Well, sort of. There are no aggressors in the tank other than the other tiger barbs. (STOCKING: 8 tiger...
