I got this fish a couple months ago. It came in with no fins at all, was told it jumped from the net as it was being packed up and all the fins got torn up.

The first night I had it suspended in a net just to keep the fish upright! I used a 10 gallon (yep, that big fish in a 10!) to quarantine it for the first two weeks because it could barely swim up to eat and it had an easier time in the smaller tank. Now it finally looks well enough to post pics of.
