Thank you for responding, very helpful. Yea I do have male and female
Platy, and both Danios have Silvery Stripes. Well I cannot really pin
point a suspect as to who attacked who (but my Algae Eater is being
watched to see if it is repeated, though I hope not). Well my Male
Platy is still alive, though pretty scratched up. Is there anything I
can do for him or just leave him alone and see how he turns out?


Catch him and dab some Neosporin on the wound with a Q-tip. Provide him
with very clean water by changing some water daily or at least every
couple of days.


Can't say I've ever seen that recommendation before; typically
mercurichrome is suggested as the thing to use with this method.
