I've been updating the earlier post (pics above). You can see he is healing very well at 8 days. I'll update again on tomorrow. It would seem that by 12 or 15 days he will be completely healed.

I think I'll stop updating this thread now because he has all but made a complete recovery after 10 days. Now...if I can only figure out how to cure his white spot problem. So far, selcon hasn't helped.

In summary...here are two photos - Dec 31 and Jan 10

Dec 31

Ironically, when I added some fresh ground garlic to the regular food the fish hated it. Maybe I used too much. I'll try that again. No harm in trying it anyway.
