I came home and saw that one of my fish were pinned behind my canister filter intake. I switched the filter off, and freed the fish who appears fine and is eating + swimming like normal. I noticed that the band holding the intake in place detached pressing the intake into the fish. Anything I should do? The fish does not appear to be injured or weakened from the inciddent. Water quality is excellent.
 
Other than repairing the band, I'd just monitor the fish. In good water conditions, any injuries should heal on their own, and it sounds like the fish wasn't hurt visibly, so should be fine.
