scale loss

[vtnamezeboi]

my arowana has loss 2 scales on its side and 1 on top of his body. usually when he loses his scales on his side its pinkish of where the scale use to be. but on top of him its more of a black color. is this normal?

Yeah it is normal from the sounds of it. The scales will quickly heal but it will take awhile for the colour to come back.

I think its normal. Top color of arowana is usually darker that the side color.

when a scale is lost that area darkens and starts to generate a new scale.
