Hello, my name is Hakim, i'm from Indonesia, and i'm 12 years old. Ok friends, as the title suggests, yes, the lower jaw of my Maroon clownfish is RIPPED into two, if you can't picture it, here are some photos! I'm sorry if they are not really good, because i don't really know how to shoot good photos, so here they are!
Yes, i know, they are bad, which is why i made a sketch of the injury!
For clarity, the white things dangling from the jaw is some exposed meat that came out of the tear, it's horrible.
Ok, time for flashbacks. I got this clown fish for about 3 days ago, it is about, like, 5cm long. My dad bought it for me and two other, smaller standard Clownfish because he said he wanted something else in my tank instead of just living rocks(corals) and shrimps, so there it was, the Maroon Clownfish arrived in a bag, during acclimation, i noticed it has a bit of flesh in his lower jaw, but didn't think much of it since it was small. Fast forward to today, his tear has grown quite a bit and it isn't eating. So now, i think it's becoming a big problem. Does anyone here know how to trat an injury like this? I don't want my Maroon Clownfish to die... :'C
