Ok guys in my tank i have two clown loaches, 1 FH, two rainbow sharks, 2 jewel chichlids and 1 BRISTLENOSE.

Today i realized some of my Bristlenose's tail is missing. Not exactly the tail part, but the outer-side with the white does at the edge of the tale?

Any guesses on why it happened? and will it heal?
 
Any pics? Does the tail look frayed?
What are water parameters?
Test kit used?

If this appears to be fin rot, then check your water parameters. Post the water parameters here.
 
Aha it could be rot? Yeah cause i was thinkin my other fish get alone fine and my FH doesnt even care about the BN, he just sometimes gets mad at the jewel chichlids thats it, and they all very young..but the BN tail edge is gone :/

I keep the water at 25 degrees, tested PH today as well its fine...nice and blue... 7.5 is it? i forgot but its the last blue color on the chart i was given.

I havent memorized the ph thing yet since i started keepn fish for only a month.
 
well put it this way, you know how comon BN's at the end of their tail have this little sea through attachment with two white dots at the top and bottom? that part is gone :/ hes to small to take a pic of
