Hi All,


by accident i was cleaning a tank and bump'd the fry saver that was in the tank and the rocks fell hard and damaged some of the l377 fry, like bent and dunno how one is basically cut in half


im sure they will grow again, but what are the chances it will be back to normal ? it was only 5 fry that i can see :( sadly

Not the top fin, the 2 front sides fin

that was silly huh? well these things happen, and i hope them a recovery. the fins should grow but may not be perfectagain. depending on the "chopped" one, i would see how he goes but if distressed i would consider putting it to rest. keep me posted mate, fingers crossed for you

Naww poor sod, the fish & you ...
It will grow back ..I just amputated a damaged fin of one of my female bns. it will grow back, hopefully yours wasn't too crushed, it may grow deformed if it was....
Best of luck with them..Keep us posted on their progress...
