Enjoy life and appreciate yourself because at the end of the day, you have to look yourself in the mirror, so you might as well smile.

You called that "badly injured"? That's NOTHING. Doesn't look like it lost even a single scale. Do what Christina suggested and your fish will be back to normal in 2 weeks. Don't panic bro. 139.gif

The fin and tail will grow out the way it used to be, doesn't if it cut or split

yeah he'll be fine bro. Just keep an eye out for any redness or signs of infection. I would just add some salt and give him time to heal. A cycle of melafix may not be a bad idea also. Another thing that may help is using stress coat dechloranator, the aloe helps the fish rebuild it's slime coat.

Yeah I agree. They heal by itself. Depends on the extent of the damage though. But with your fish, I think it will go back. Some fish takes time to heal than the others.
