    Default Hole in the head recoery

    Hi, does anyone know if the holes in head of a discus close over in time after the fish recovers from the disease?
    Any ideas to help the fish recover? Thanks..

    There are a number of causes for hole in the head and they are treatable when the hole are in the early stages.The fish will recover over time. Follow this link ( 3 pages) for causes and treatment .....................http://www.simplydiscus.com/library/...nal/hith.shtml
