Hello All,
First, I am posting this in the disease forum as well to get the most possible opinions.
I received this maroon clown yesterday. She is exquisite (and BIG 4 inches) except for what look to be a couple of scars/wounds.
You can see the damage above the left eye (as you are looking at the pic). There is a slight swollen area that extends from the scar/injury, over the top of her head, to the approximate place behind the right eye. She has the same kind of injury (except not as bad) on the last gold stripe by her tail.
I am thinking maybe bacterial, since the USPS screwed up the delivery by a day, so instead of getting her the next day, it turned out to be 48hrs. Fortunately, the seller packed her in two gallons of water, or she would have never made it. Opinions please on treatment (if any) and prognosis. TIA
