So about 2 months ago my new clown bit off the tail of my old clown. The tail has regrown only in certain parts and I wondering if I should expect full regrowth or was it too far gone to come back fully?

Crikey!

I've seen tails do some amazing things, yet that seems a little far gone. It may grow back somewhat, but I predict it will never be a "normal" tail.
 
Yeah it was pretty bad. Definitely down to the peduncle. It's weird to me how 2 areas seemed to regrow and the rest of the tail didn't. Here's the before pic for reference.

That just makes him special :-)
 
If the rays of the tail were bitten off completely the chances of those parts growing back are slim to none.
