Hey Grif, I was hoping you would find this asap. Well STV is just over 1 1/2", I have already set up a hospital tank so that exact thing wouldn't happen. So I will apply the neosporin asap, it is definitely inflamed but no worse then yesterday so..If its only a cricket bite then i'll keep and treat it. How often should I apply the neosporin? I'll try and get a better pic soon just didn't want to stress the little one out anymore then he was. When I got him he was almost panting, he was breathing so hard/fast.

The hard breathing was because he was scared. Apply the Neosporin twice a day and always clean the wound before re-applying the Neosporin. Make sure you have some hides for him in the hospital tank so he can hide and cover 3 sides with a background so he feels secure. The less stress the better.

Keep his progress updated.

Ok grif so its starting to look a little better, the redness has gone down a little as well as the swelling. He still has a good appetite but I still haven't seen any poop. I have read your advice on the pedialyte and hunny bath, a few times, so if I dont see any poop by tomorrow night I think that's what I'm gonna do.

Sounds like a good plan. I'm glad to hear he is doing better! Keep a close eye on the wound. It is very good that he is eating well. That is always a good sign. Keep us posted.
