Ok, this one is a bit odd but I am hoping someone might have run into
this issue.
I have a 3 year old Nemo (ClownFish) that has a cold sore on the bottom
of his mouth. Its a brown looking scab that has been around for about 2
days and looks very odd.
Any suggestions?

Cheers

I do not think its what is actually a "cold Sore" but it could be the
start of a bacterial infection, fungus, or even a injury..

Any suggestions on how to either find out or check for Fungus or
bacterial infection?

Treat for both, Pimafix & Melafix ... or my favorite Mardel Maracyn.

Not gonna get into the Pima / mela Fix thing again, but save your
money and treat it with an approved antibiotic or med. Water changes
also are a big help....Leave the XXXX Fix's on the LFS shelves along
with all the other snake oils they sell.

Agree..now that I think of it Pimafix smells like soap !
I don't remember results either.

But Maracyn is good stuff.
