does this heal?

this happened when he stabbed the guy bagging him.

That spine will probably heal but I doubt if it will fuse back to the rest of the fin.

Same thing happened to my pseudoplatystoma corruscans on its pectoral fin and it has never healed. Ive seen it happen to other fish and heals up fine. Looks like you will only know in time

Thanks for the help, guys

If it doesn't get infected and is given rest, the spine may fuse back together with the rest of the fin. The result may or may not look as before.
