Ya I'm not sure if it's age related or not. Didn't think he was that old but it's hard to say. It seems in captivity that mandrains and scotters only live 5-6 years

So apparently a fish can break/hurt it's fin. My scooter spent a few days barely moving, then started moving around a little bit and now he's moving around a lot more. Tried spot feeding him when he was hurt but it didn't look like he ate. He's a bit skinnier then normal so I hope he starts finding food again and will be ok and fatten up.
