WELL... im tryin to catch my otto, it looks like someone was trying to beat him up!!! its incomplete and RED! and he cant stay sticked in one place he slowly falls down :-( what ishould i do?! when i finally catch him!? i was thinkin on puttin him in my 10..... but im not sure? what should i do? his tankmates are, 2 angels, 1 cory and 2 other otos
 
I would seperate him, if you manage to catch the little :devil: :D
I hope that he will be ok. do you suspect any fish in particular?
 
Edit: wait a minute you said he's "incomplete" and he looks chewed on? Scratch my previous comments.
 
what did you sed previously, yes his mouth looks kinda chewed! he cannot stay sticked to the walls , he falls down sowly, and has a pretty big belly for his size :-(

actually i dont suspect, but if i have to choose i would say Goldie (angelfish) he is the most....mmmm agressive when it comes to feeding time
 
Your otto could have damaged it himself as well. Mine get themselves into some rediculously tight spots and I'm amazed they haven't gotten themselves crushed yet. Though I think one of mine might have lost the battle I can't find him.
 
such as popeye like freshmikes betta? my fish haven't had deseases but Maracyn 2, Maracyn, and melafix i think would all work well, it's my understanding that he is just ripped up a bit if it is actually popeye either of the marcyn's should work
 
the popeye? no i don't think it is sorta due to bad water conditions and bacteria growth under the eye,
 
as is no longer help i dont wanna edit, so ..... i put him in a de-chlorinated water little bowl, and put melafix in it, and .....30 minutes later he died :'(
