update of my comm:

so far the small boy is hiding in a corner most of the time. no new injuries found on him.

For normal shell scratches due to bites from other pnts, do u all actually put medication? If yes, how u apply & wat is more effective medication? On itself or add to water?

Juz got a pnt back, previously suffered some bites/scratches on iz shell. Pix as below. One of the eye's eyelid a bit scratches, can't open fully, thought of putting yellow powder...should I leave it there or..? Hope the experts can advise me. Thanks in advance.

Juz took out, applied some Jap yellow powder & apply around his eyelid. Leave there about 10min, put back in tank. can see iz eye open much bigger, b4, only can open halfway only.

Pix as below after applied yellow powder.
