Treating a wounded 12" blue ring angel

[spit.fire]

today i stopped by the local pet store and they recieved a ~12" blue ring angel that had been badly beaten up from shipping, it has some pretty bad wounds to its side just infront of its tail and is missing about 1/3 of its right fin. The owner of the store offered the fish to me for free because ive had pretty good luck with treating all the injured fish he gets in although ive never treated this large of a fish with this large of injuries so any advice would help.


For those who were wondering how it got injured, it was shipped in a leaky box and lost about half its water in shippment. It ended up doing quite a bit of damage to itself by thrashing around. The store ordered small angels and recieved this gigantic angel.

it will be going in a 150g tank for treatment and once it is healed up will be moved to my 360gallon tank
