Angelfish feeler

[garyr]

My angelfish has lost a feeler. This appendage probably has a more approriate name. But, it's one of the two long "feelers" on the lower front. The feeler was damaged when I bought the fish and has fallen off. Will the fish regenerate another feeler to replace the one lost or will it be a uni-feeler for the rest of it's life? Thanks.

That I couldn't tell you. I've had them with two of different sizes and assumed one had gotten broke off at some time or another.

I am thinking that they can grow back like other fish can with feelers and barbels, but I am only generalizing and am not at all sure.
