if its a wound then the best treatment is clean water, simply keep your nitrites and ammonia level at 0 and your nitrate level below 10 and it should quickly heal, provided it isn't harassed or attacked by the other piranhas which in fairness may well happen

it is pretty comon for most carnivorus fish to pick on the weak, even wolves and lions do it. so your pirahnas best bet of survival is to be in a separate tank if possible.

ok well he hasn't been attacked yet and it has been about 2 weeks or so, and looks to be healing quick
