nothing special... just salt tank water to 0.3% to prevent bacteria from taking advantage of the stressed goldfishes... and let the them recover by themselves. at time of recovering, just keep the water parameters in check.

the torn fins and scales will grow back... but the grown back scales will be different.

Move yr injured fish to a hospital tank. Do not put too much water as yr goldfish might have difficulity swimming.

Add salt & aerate yr water.........if u want, us can also add in some medication like OF Fish Guard which is good for external wound of fish. Do not overdose.......

Monitor & do partial water change everyday........shd be fine....hopefully.......

Good Luck!

Yes, and wooo... really?

I was reading up on melafix and impressed. Apparently it's available from different manufacturers and made of all natural products. I like! I think colour fade better than getting infection and die. Must have.
