I am happy for yah but for my understanding - I can't add something. 5-10 days ago the barbel was missing altogether? What is the time line on your photos and the situation at hand?
I don’t know how either lol. Ill get another pic when i get back to my house. I’m currently in class and dorming. Ill be back this weekend to get more pics. I have a few videos that ill post when i get back to my dorm
I tried to get the best photo I could. He swims around a lot more now. I’m thinking. About getting another tiger shovel nose of maybe a RTC I’m not sure yet.
Good job with the fish and with the reporting. Thank you for the photos too.
It must be incredibly hard to keep fish mostly long-distance. All kinds of things can go wrong.
A barbel takes months to grow back. So I think we just missed it in the prior photos. Perhaps the fish held it close to the body due to the white thing / sore. When the sore cured, the barbel was "reinstated" in its usual visible function and position.
