badis

Hi all, Wish I was here under better circumstances. So one of my black tiger badis has developed dropsy over the last year or so. At first, I thought he was just fat/constipated since he was the most aggressive eater out of the ones I have, and was always a bit rounder. But over the last month...

During the night one of my fish tore into my badis badis. The whole side of his face is practically gone. Surprisingly he is alive and eating a little bit. I moved him to a more peaceful tank. I’ve been using melafix. I’m wondering if there’s anything else I should do? How often should I do...
