Can I use hydrogen peroxide externally?
Yesterday I bought a small colony of albino full red guppy, and the breeder male, a male with a huge tail has a small segment of fun decaying... I've read that people have physically applied hydrogen peroxide to a cut before with a lot of success. I need all the tips possible to not killing my fish for I accidentally did once when the fish flopped.... Should I wait to apply the hydrogen peroxide? Or should I apply it now ( remember he is a new fish ). How do I stop him from moving and stop the hydrogen peroxide from going to his gills without stressing him?
Thanks I advance for any tips!

You can kind of see his cut, ( he is very active so kinda hard to take pictures )
Also, he has a small white spot on one side of his body, I contacted the guy I bought him from and he said that it was there the day he got him.. Could it be collumaris?... I am gradually introducing salt to the tank.
