Hello, I recently added a black ocellaris to my fish tank, I previously had a quite bigger snowflake ocellaris and during the first couple of nights I saw some chasing and aggression from what I now call the female(snowflake). She tore one of the little guy’s fin pretty good and I just wanted to ask if it looks like he will regrow it by himself or I should take a proactive approach.
PS. They now live fine swimming together quite often andI never see any chasing or aggression.
thank you!

It should grow back fine as long as there's no further aggression. You may want to keep an eye out for signs of infection, but in my limited experience they generally heal pretty quickly.

Great to hear! Thank you!
