I've got 2 gouramis with two different injuries. The first one is a turquoise dwarf and sadly, he somehow ruptured his eye and now it looks like it's all shriveled up. Is there anything I can do to help him live through this? I'm kind of worried b/c he doesn't seem to be eating. I don't know if it's because he can't find the food or what. The other is a flame dwarf gourami....he's got a sore picked into his side right behind his gill and I think it is the 3rd dwarf gourami that is doing it (she is constantly chasing him around). Anyway, is there anything I can add to the tank to help him heal & not harm the other fish?
My current tank readings: (we currently use test strips, and I don't like them b/c the ammonia always reads the same).....anyway....Ammonia .5; Nitrate 0; Nitrite 0; ph between 7.2 - 7.8. Temp 82'. We did a 10 gal water change about 3 days ago; and we usually do a 10 - 20 gal water change once a month.
