Oh right. Oh, it's definitely not. I don't have an ammonia tester. Nitrites 0ppm nitrates 5ppm. Ph6. Its around 1 year old. 2.5inch fish.

It killed my other GBR female, the female it killed had massive wounds. Hence I'm sure this is battle wounds.

Ok, in that case forget the melafix, just keep the water extra clean and feed high quality foods and it will heal..
