Help!

[Starfleet]

I just rescued a CFBN from a Walmart where someone had put it in a tank with Pacu's and Oscars. He is pretty beat up with legs/feet missing, part of his tail gone and a chunk missing at the base of his tail. All of the wounds are fresh. What do I need to do to save him? What is a good way to house him and treat the wounds?

No need to reply to this post. The little guy didn't make it through the night. I had him in a small carrier with wet plain white paper towel in the bottom and had dabbed his wounds with a q-tip dampened with Bactine. I believe he was just too traumatized to survive.

Poor little guy. I can't believe they let him suffer like that in Walmart. It is wonderful that you did rescue him and did what you could.
