Hi everyone,

One of my little guys got a fungal infection the other week, which has thankfully gone thanks to fridging and salt baths. It was on his lips towards the end, but that has also gone.
Now he's left with his lips peeled. Will this go away if I continue with salt baths?
I've got a picture attached.

Thanks for any help :)

Being as the fungus has cleared I'd leave the salt baths for now and just make sure his waters always nice and clean. When one of mine had fungus she lost pretty much all the "fluff" on several of her gills, all of which eventually regrew without aid. Being as their excellent healers I would just keep an eye on him but think
the skin should regrow nicely. :eek:
 
Great! Thank you for that! Hopefully Dean will get his great big smile back soon.
