I just picked up a baby silver arowana on Sunday and 2 days ago I noticed his fins were looking messed up and this morning it looks like someone took some scissors to his fins. I have no idea what it is can someone please help me!.

I know it's not the gar he doesn't mess with anyone. I'll see the bass chasing each other around but I've never seen them go after the aro and sat there like all day yesterday just to make sure

Are those medications safe for the eel and gar? And I put a little bit of salt in there this morning
