Sick Fox Face

[kaOzGrUnT]

He has something inside the top part of the mouth, I started noticing that he wasn't eating big chunks of shrimp or silversides only brine shrimp, also not eating algae sheets (not that he doesn't try, he just can't get them inside his mouth) So I checked him and see a white chunk inside his mouth.
any idea what can this be? and is it curable and how?

have u glue ang frags lately

I have no frags, no glue, it looks as if he had an infection on his teeth.
I am thinking of taking the fish out the water, and removing whatever is in his mouth with a tweezer.
is there something i can give the fish to calm him or put him to sleep before I do the "surgery"

My powder brown tang had the same problem but it went away after about couple of weeks. My foxface had an popped eye... his eyes were sticking out for like one third of an inch than normal. and it went away after couple of weeks..

also remeber that this fish is poisonous, and there isnt a fish setative out there really, just wait and see, and if not let it go. its not worth it cause i can die under the knife and or u can get pricked.
