Hello all,

So, I've recently acquired four adult silver dollars, from a family member who was moving interstate (He previously had a pleco and an oscar with them)

We unfortunately had to do a bit of rush rush when we transferred them over, and as a result, it was just bare, with only substrate, and an air rock to keep them company.

They were very skittish and kept hitting the glass with a considerable amount of force.

So I Put some decor in there and a few live plants.
I also bought two more juveniles bringing the total up to six, I plan on getting more plants when money allows (And they slowly seem to be settling in) but I was wondering if I should be worried that they may have caused themselves harm?

Notice the damage/discolouration of the upper lips on the left ones?

Any info or newb tips would be welcome, thank you, and have a nice day!
 
Looks like they have Coulmnaris. A fungal infection. Try Melafix, Voogle , or Furan 2
Be aggressive, secondary infections come on quick and are usually fatal
 
I'm trying Melafix, and I'll do so WC's. I'm just going to have to be careful that I don't stress them out further.
