What is in that anti-fungus medicine you are (none / 0) (#2)

applying? It will take a few days to a week at least to go away and heal. Unless there is damage to the jaw, young and middle aged fish should look just fine afterwards. :)

aquarium pharmaceuticals. I started it on Friday. I put in 1 treatment that night, the 2nd on Sunday night and then I did a gravel syphon along with a water change and added the carbon to the filter. The water is highlighter green. I know it's normal with the medication but it still looks weird. Should I try some type of antibiotic?

prior to treatment. 48 hours after the 2nd treatment I have to do a 25% water change and add the filter back in.

Golden Pearls from Ken's. They're available in VERY small sizes, and are a good substitute for brine shrimp. They're all the rage in Europe from what I understand. I've used them here to great success feeding fry.
