Trying to run a friend's aquarium that was given to us just a week ago.
Recently I added Melafix to help my Silver Dollar's eye heal from cloudy eye that may have been caused by an injury in his new environment. I later learned to remove the charcoal filter from the Marineland Penguin Bio Wheel 350 filter that I have. I also added aquarium salt.
Unfortunately in the process, this must have increased the filter power and my Blue Gourami got stuck to the mid-level intake. I didn't even know it could be closed! His fins are red.
At this point do I just leave the Melafix and Salt to do it's job or should I do anything else to help him? Do I need to be worried about any disease in the tank or should these things prevent this?
