Hi, I'm new to this forum. I've just seen that my bany has his tail a little injured. Its like a 2mm place where there are no scales, I'm really worried about infections so i would lke to know what should be done to him, its not bleeding or anything. Thanks for anyone that helps me out.
Hi - that looks like maybe it was nipped or pinched. You can put raw unfiltered honey or manuka honey on it to ward off infection IF you ensure no feeders that would be attracted to it will be left in his tank with him. Otherwise just keep it clean and keep an eye on it. That last tiny bit may shrivel and fall off on its own. Same care to avoid infection, or you can try a bit of neosporin/triple antibiotic ointment on it.
