question on fish scale regen
Hello:

I bought a 10" fish from the local store and noticed that it's missing a couple of scales on one side after I got home. question: does new scales regenerate at all? if yes, how long will I expect to see the new scales? regards,

Steve

Well if the fish is young it has a better chance of it growing back. If a big fish ie 30"+ it will never grow back...
