okay here goes. i might be getting a goliath atf, but the snout is pretty badly damaged. at 12inches it's going into a 5x3x2, it's previous tank was 5x2x2. from your experiences/knowledge, do you think the mouth can be healed?
it will definitely heal.
but whether it will eal enough to look like it never happened,i cant be sure...
cause it looks totally out of shape already.
i think it will most likely heal from all the wounds but retain that odd shape...
nice buy IMO if its eating well etc.
As long as its eating, I would get it. You can tell it is experiencing alot of stress cause of the damage and the fins are tattered. This is more than likely why the mouth area is damaged. Tank mates causing it to ram the glass and such. So as soon as you get it acclimated to a less stressful place it should heal quickly.
