Injured Gourami

[chad07]

Hi Everyone,

I have just been to the fish shop to buy an Angel Fish but my attention was caught by an injured Gourami that has lost alot of his backend... Although ive not yet lost a fish and would like to keep my 100% record i just had to have this fish, as i think he has more chance of surviving in my tank were things are a little more settled etc... Ive already got a massive soft spot for him lol.

Is there anything i can do to help him grow his tail back, or to help him feel better in general?? He seems pretty happy and able to swim which is surprising when you look at how much of his tail he has lost. Im taken back with how he somehow keeps going.

Any help/comments would be appreciated.....

I did also come back with an Angel fish as well so if anyone knows anything that i should do or watch out for. Again any help is appreciated...

Regards

Chad

Fresh water & melafix helps with torn up fins. A quar tank should be used for any new purchases, daily 50% water changes for the first week will do wonders for torn fins.

What to expect from the angel depends on the tank you plan on putting him/her in. Tank size & tankmates are needed.
