Yes it will, metals that are not detoxified in the water will kill your fish easily, along with anything that leaches a dye.

My flowerhorn jumped out of its tank 2 months ago when it was still in its fry stage at about .75 inch. He was later moved into a 55 gallon tank with larger unaggressive tank mates. He was out for a good 15 minutes but somehow survived, he swims and eats normally now. But I was wondering if...

Where are the sores located? If they are near the head/mouth/gills its most likely the prestage of mouth fungus. Buy some powdered broad range medicine, it'll fix it up. Just continue to monitor that platy because it can spread.

Well 5 gallons is too small for that many fish, even with their small size. Test your water, with a small tank ammonia levels can easily skyrocket.

No other fish lol, not even another crayfish! They'll tear each other apart. And no aquarium light really.

I'll have to go with 3 live bearers. So platies, mollies, or swordtails.

Veggies are fine, and only feed them bread that has been sundried, but this is only for the goldfish. Not entirely sure if tetras eat it too.

I only keep freshwater fish so I go with the tropical environment. Amazon sword plants, other tall plants, sand substrate with some rocks and driftwood.
