But he has always been so active
that' what I don't get...heck if my skin was peeling off I'd be in the corner crying...haha
Funny thing though....he will come to me now....I mean I can put my hand in there, and he will come to it (not to bite it) I think he knows I am his "caregiver"
who knows....but he trusts me

He does look better.
That's kind of neat. All my clowns know about me is that I give them food.

He is going to be super vulnerable to infections without the scales. Give him some food soaked in fresh garlic.
OK....I'll start that right away....good thing he is still eating good, cause I still use the selcon, zoe, zoecon and vita-chem (alternately)

That is going to help! As Beth said, he will be prone to infections for awhile. Keep some Maracyn 2 on hand just in case. Building up his immune system is the most important thing at this point. Add the fresh garlic and keep a close eye on the water quality. Be sure there are plenty of hiding spots too.

I know it has been a LONG time since I updated this thread....but recovery has been VERY SLOW....here are some updated pics.....she is not 100%, and you can see teh dark areas are where the white exposed areas were....so she has no more exposed flesh 
from a distance she just looks darker
Her initial reaction was OH NO....NOT MORE PICS...LOL

Do you think the scars are permanent???
I think over time you will see improvement, but he is scared to some extent for life. But, its ok....he's gotten a lot of attention for all his dilapidated looks.
