Well, he's not much better; or much worse really. Just kinda hanging in there.
Did take your advice and cut a frag from him. Whew, that wasn't easy!!!
I read everything I could find, bought a pair of really sharp scissors, and did the deed. So far, so good. The first pic here is right after I put the little guy back in the tank - I don't have a seperate tank to put him in.
The next two are pics I took today of the large finger... seems to be no worse for wear, and the small guy (did the surgery yesterday).
Will watch the big guy carefully, and pull another piece if the little guy does ok and/or the big guy looks any worse.
Thanks for your help!!!
