So I bought a xingu when it was about 4" the fins all looked good. As he grew I noticed one pelvic fin is shorter and stubbier than the other side. It doesn't seem to affect his swimming.

It is nearly impossible to get good pictures showing both sides. It is extremely noticeable in person though.

Is there a fix for this...im guessing not because his whole fin would probably need to be cut off to re-grow, not sure If the whole thing even would. This would be purely cosmetic and me just being anal about it.

good fin


Bad fin

 
Call that bad boy NEMO and move on. Its a birth defect. Nothing you can do will help him/her to grow the fin back.
