    kuz my little oscar got rough up by the biger one.and his lateral fin(the clear ones) got split in two.the dorsal to..and one of the long ones on his belly...
    he dosnt seems so afected by this beatdown,he eat has usual(witch means a lot) he swim ,a bit slow but he is not like sinking to the bothom and do nothing(like a dying fish)
    so i wonder if the fins will be normal again,and how long/wat should i do will it take

    As long as the water parameters are good the fins should heal just fine. You could add some Melafix to help speed up the healing.

    How far down was the missing piece? Was it all the way to the very base of her tail (ie took some of the tail tissue too)?

    What are your water parameters?
