Hey guys I recently got 2 baby silver arowana and I think the one beat the other one pretty bad...He is missing a barbel and fins are torn pretty bad...He doesn't swim much and sinks too the bottom

Is there anything I can do to save him? Please help

Sorry to say but most don't Baby Aro's are fragile and easily stressed and usually have a hard time trying to recover from such attacks.
 
Would separate and aerate the water. Dim the lights but like tlindsey tlindsey mentioned, not likely to recover.

Thanks a lot guys...I really don't think he is gonna make it now as he just sinks down too the floor but still breathing

You are probably right. Would just put it down if able to.
