It might have been in the past, or perhaps he was the recipient of some fin nipping from others, but currently, though disfigured, I don't see anything that requires anything more than plenty of clean water and patience.

As Ryan implied, the soft part of the fin can be trimmed, have a look at this thread http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?27044-Heckel-Hair-Cut!!!!&highlight=Heckel
