Hippo fight with LR

[jimitoCR]

I was cleaning the bottom of the quarantine tank that now has a baby Hippo tang the other day and the hippo spooked and scraped his body on the LR. What course of action or treatment should follow.

do you have a pic of the fish so we can see how badly it is damaged. if it is just a scrape it will be fine. if the fish has flesh showing you need to treat with an antibacterial such as formalin. and for future reference, i usually leave my QT alone, those fish are very skiddish, and usually dont settle down, until weeks or months after being put in the display.
