i have a pond for about a year now and i have a black moor and i havent added any fish in the pond. i came home today and noticed that his tail is "shredded" looks like it and is front right dorsal looks like it may be broken not much movement there and also has some scars on his sides. i did not find any other damaged fish in the pond yet. i took him out and i have a 10gal tank i put him in with the pond water and some plants and 2 airstones for oxygen. i added some stress coat and was wondering if there is anything else i can do to help heal him.

You might want to add some Melafix to help with the fin damage.

Ouch o.< Probably the birds or raccons. Thats some bad damage right there. Try getting lilipads to hide under.

black mooors shouldn't be kept in ponds unless it' a warmer climate.
