Sailfin in tang split

[ssweet1]

I have a 3-4 inch sailfin tang and his top sailfin has a splice in it. It doesnt seem to affect his swimming or anything but should I be concerned? Treatment? He eats and seems fine I guess my mean anthias picked him or maybe he hit a sharp rock?? Carrie

depending on the size it should heal within a few days with no medication. my sail fin gets picked on by my blue tang every so often and the sail fin always heals usually over night.
i wish humans could regenerate like that... :happy:

Ok good! I will keep my eye on him, I never see anyone picking on him so I just dont know how it happened. Carrie

same here my sailfin tang gets em sometimes but they always heal up over night. as long as ur parameters are good he should heal right up.
