Do scomb grow teeth back?

[dirtyblacksocks]

Got a 5 inch scomb, don't know if he banged the glass or knocked it trying to catch somthing, but his lower right incisor is now bent out of his mouth (one of the longer teeth).

Do these just naturally fall out and grow back?

yes,they will grow back and they do normally change their teeth as they grow.

Very common for all Payara species.

It is also a good sign of growth.
G/L with him big dogg, as I hear they are fragile fish

Did an 80% water change today and he seemed to be fine - haven't seen him eat yet, plenty of feeders in the tank when he chooses to, though.

Has he made it past the magic 2week mark yet. I would love for someone to figure out how to keep this fish alive. I have tried many many times with no luck.----------how long have you had it and whats your set up.

I bought a two inch scomb.back in April and its grown to about four inches since then,I also have an eight incher that I have had for a month and a half,they are both more robust than my redtail tat and my young Armatus.
