I have been seeing this for a while now but never looked super close let at it it just like like dirt or something but I have him a bath and tried to see if I could gently scratch it off with my nail and it hurts him because he moves and flinches his hand away but I can do the exact same thing and even harder it other spots next to it without the dirt or What ever and he doesn’t even care, I managed to scrape a tiny bit of it off but I stopped it the clack stuff defenetly got softer with the soaking but he dint like me touching. Pls help.
Hi there, it looks like slight trauma of some sort. You can put raw unpasteurized honey on it, should heal it up . Just be sure there are no loose insects in the tank that would go after the honey + wound.
You could also use betadine watered down to the color of iced tea dabbed on 2-3 X a day as well as Neosporin, but don't use the kind that says " pain relief".
