Hi all, i think this fish was bitten a couple weeks ago and ive been keeping an eye on him And he looked like he was healing with no puss or mucus around the wound, his the only fish with it and in the last day (didnt have it last night and saw it when i got home today) he has grown like a black fungas on him?, he also had a small lump grow under his fin in the last day, No other fish haave marks on them, and all the fish swim around healthy and eat per usual Any help appreciated thanks! - concerned fish owner
Sorry the pictures arnt the best, but the right is the bite mark and left is the black scum
