He is my favorite of all. I have to be honest I didnt know if he was going to live three years ago. I had a bacteria outbreak from not Quarantine new fish.(didnt know better now I joined NWKG and read alot)I lost almost all my fish there were 3 survivors. He was one. He had no tail, Fins and a bunch of sores. I was soooooooo sad it almost stopped me totally. Well after much care I got him back to condition and he is totally back to health and his beauty. His Hi has actually improved and his body went from off white to white.Ohh and just to let you know 1/3 of the way up his tail on the left side he isnt missing a scale it is a new one in the picture it looks white but in real life its a pale gray right now.I am a little concerned that his hi is coming to far up in the cheek area. Thanks for looking and letting me know...
You should get a blue bowl for fish, it will really make a difference. Also post a few pics of your fish's sides too. It looks like it has alright scalation, I can't be sure from the pic though. I really can't say much more without better pics.
