Why does my angel fin keep ripping?

[Sidman24]

This is the second time I have noticed it rip. It is normal? I don't think anyone is picking on her/him. It's the back fin, it usually heals pretty fast.

Could be anything, might of caught it on a plastic plant or decoration.

Happens to mine all the time! I just ordered some Indian almond leaves off eBay that are supposed to help healing. Other than that frequent pwc's might help.

What else is in the tank?

What else is in the tank?

I have lemon tetras, cories, female blue rams, otos, and a female paradise. ( the paradise is the friendliest paradise you will meet! Haha )

My money's on the paradise doing it while you're not looking.

Hahaha awh maybe! But she was a rescue.

Yep, don't trust those paradise fish.

Abnormally aggressive rams could be the culprit as well. But IMO that would be less likely than the paradise.

Hubs once had an abnormally aggressive gold ram. By that, I mean homicidal. LOL. This fish was kept alone because it beat up a rainbow shark and some angelfish twice its size. You just never know!
