Question
the Platty fish that I have has eaten on the big Gormi fish what do I need to treat the gormi fish with to help him heal?
he seems to be eating and swimming the best he can and I'm taking the platty fish out tonight and giving it to the pet store can you help

Answer
Hi Sheila,
 I suspect you mean "gourami"?  The best thing you can do is to separate the fish (as you said you would). This will give the injured fish a chance to heal.  Fish can often recover from injuries on their own provided that the source of the injury is removed.
