last night my ropefish dug under the divider and ate my BGK's pectoral fin and possibly one of its eyes, it looks very weak, should i just put it out of its misery or hope for the best?
 
Is it still swimming, and eating normally/semi-normally?

I would not 'put it out of it's misery' until you have to. Give it time, and see how it does.

Most fish, if given time to heal, will grow back fins.
 
he is swimming but wont eat, i hope it heals but its pectoral fin is completely gone, the is no stump or anything and its eye seems to still be there but just clouded over
 
Add some salt and bump up the temp. It's probably stressed. Hope it's fin grows back.
 
Give it a chance at life...They tend to heal and recover if left unstressed...
 
hes doing good now, its eating and swimming normally.
 
not at all, its only been a few days.
