Hey like i posted earlier ive got 2 silver aros in same tank as i wait for my asian ( dont know how long left before they arrive) , anyway one of them has been fin nipping the other quiet abit im not sure how long until i get the other one ,will it heal fully ? i dont got any spare tank or anywhere else to put it atm. ( could maybe try build a divider ) ?

yikes, they should regrow but the "fingers", as i like to call them, in the fins will probably not grow back straight (does that make sense)?

If you're unsure as to whether or not the asian will come in time to take some of the aggression off, or even if it will, you should go the safe route and make yourself a divider before you lose a fish. Just my opinion!
 
Yeah i put a plastic box cover in now to seperate the tank maybe not the best way but its better then nothing i guess.
 
you should separate them
