My fire gouramis has what looks do be an open sore or ulcer. There is white around it although it isnt fluffy or anything is is skin texture. I am currently treating him with melefix for the open sores. Will it help, it its an ulcer?

What should I use?

i had a dwarf gouramis die a couple of weeks ago :(
and it looked like its had a wound becasuse it was all red around the tummy, turned out by filter had been blocked for two days. so check your filter and water readings
 
That's a bacterial infection, it seems to attack gouramis in that fashion often,open wounds. Melafix isn't gonna cut it :/ You'll need to pick up some meds for bacteria problems.
