i think a rock in my tank may have tipped over and caused large wounds on the sides of my oscar a couple days ago. i thought that eventually they would heal but now he is just laying on the bottom of the tank until i feed him. I was wondering if he may have some sort of infection and if there is anything i could do to save him. please respond ASAP....its not lookin good for him.

If there appears to be fungus growing at site of injury, treat tank with anti-fungal medication, methylene blue etc...you can also add some vitamin B complex solution to the tank and stress coat formula to speed recovery of wound.
