I got a yellow coris and put it in my display not thinking the melanarus would attack it since that fish is scared of everything, well it did and the yellow coris had a bloody spot on the side. She was new to the tank so I was able to catch her right away and put in the fuge to recover. That was the 28th. After a week she was healing up but started to come out later after lights on to eat and the 8th was the last time I saw her. Saw her a few min ago when first set of fuge lights were on ans her eye's are bulging and breathing is rapid, second set scared her into the sand. So, the fish can still swim well enough to get into the sand and I know where to siphon to vacuum her out.
Could this be an infection? What is best treatment? I can have a 13gallon tank up in an hour.
