Cory healing ability...

[Waylander]

Will Cory's barbels/whiskers grow back? One of mine's seem to be quite damaged, I only noticed when I got it home. It can still find food and seems to get enough to eat... Will they grow back as long as it continues to get enough to eat?

Thanks in advance,

Kieren

I assume you mean the fish was just purchased. Yes, the barbels will grow back fine. A lot of people think the barbels get cut off on sharp gravel, but 98% of barbel loss is due to poor water quality. Keep up with your water changes.
