So my asian arowana jumped while i was cleaning his tank. His tail got injured but was otherwise healthy. He started eating the next day and is as active was he before


So do you think his tail will grow back in few days? Please don't ask me to do a cosmetic surgery on him which is a stress for bot me and my fish

That would probably take a 3-4 months tbh. It will grow back. Do an extra wc a week, add some salt, keep the water clean as possible and it should grow back like new, guaranty.
 
Yes it'll grow back but chance is that it won't grow back fully. If thats the case, I'd sedate the fish and cut it all evenly, for it to grow back evenly eventually. But just wait and see how it grows back first. It'll take a month+ easily, probably more like 2-3.
