Fish Bruise

[Aqua1996]

My Yellow Lab Cichlid was fighting with my other fish

He was battered pretty bad (they’re all settled now all is calm) he’s swimming and eating fine

But he looks like he’s been bruised?
Will this heal and how long will it take ?

Yeah, he'll heal up fine. Just monitor for secondary infections. Those Africans love to fight. I have a tank full. 2 with only 1 eye. Everyone in there has some type of nipped fin i think. They're hardy and tough besides being aggressive, lol
