BN pleco with bent fin

[Pawtrekker]

Hey guys, I finally got the fish I have been waiting for! Two golden Bushy Nose Plecos! I just brought them home and am floating them now but I just noticed that one of them has a bent side fin (pectoral I think is what it's called) The end of it is bent upward. Other than that he seem fine and he swims fine I just wanted to know if I should be worried? Will it eventually grow back to normal? I am so happy to finally have these guys! I've been waitng fot the LFS to get them in for over a month! ;D

Could you upload a picture of the fin? It sounds like it will be fine, but I would like to see it to make sure.

Okay, I'll try to get one up tomorrow.

I'm curious, what is LFS?

Make sure to watch and see if it gets worse because it could potentially be an injury or even a disease, but if he appears to be fine, then chances are that it is just a small mutation in its genes.

Okay, thanks. I'll be sure to keep an eye on it.
