last night i noticed my smallest angel was missing, after a long search i presumed it must have died and the others had eaten it. then a little while after i noticed a pleco trying to suck something out of the first filter chamber (the tank has one of those built in 3 chamber filter things - a biofilter?) anyhow i got a long rod and prized out what turned out to be the missing fish - miraculously still alive. but he's in a state
large white patch at the back which i guess is from a pleco sucking on him? one of his eyes looks scratched and clouded over, his face is skinny as if its been sucked by the filter flow.

BUT he's survived the night.

i have him in a floating breeder tank at the moment

anything i can do to help or does it look too bad??

It doesnt look too good to be honest. The injuries proabably stemmed from an agression fight, the pleco then making it worse.
Good luck though

R.I.P. Bless Him.
 
Im really sorry about that :( Just keep an extra eye out for any more agression and remove the fish ASAP.
