greetings! My premium gold xb just got injured by a black wolf fish. The wolf bit him and caused the soft portion of his gill to tear. The injury is not really that serious it only tore a part of the gill like someone had cut it with a scissors horizontally and some part was torn off from the hard portion of the gills maybe about 2mm from where the soft portion is attached to the hard portion

I was wondering how long would it take for him to recover and for the gill to completely heal? What can i do to make his recovery faster? Thanks

I mean without pics and not really knowing the severity I would say 10 days or so.
Here are the pics. The bottom half is slightly seperated from the hard part of the gill cover. Like 2mm. Would it reattach to the hard part?
