yeah, the most recent pic of the koran is the second one. the healing had slowed down, but it could be in part because the 125 tank he's now in is only 3 months old, the nitrates are just now starting to approach <10ppm, from >80. It seems to be speeding up again now.

I hope he turns out as nice as my tang did, but it was so severe I wouldn't be suprised if some scarring is left forever.

I guess the moral of my thread is no matter how severe this problem seems it can be resolved, so if you can get a bargain hlle fish, go for it!

I would love to hear experiences or see before/after pics from others who have had success with this problem. Any tips/pointers? Would also be interested in anyones views on how this starts and the best way to resolve it. In my experience it starts with poor water quality and diet, and is resolved by providing just the opposite. Interestingly enough, neither of my tanks have a grounding probe, though i've heard that stray voltage can be a factor. (Don't think so myself).

Also, can anyone tell me how to post multiple pics in the same post? lol.

seeya! Becca
