Just when everybody is happy and doing well our 3.5" cobalt got him/ herself stuck in a net and messed up a top fin. This morning I had stupidly left the net at the top of the water after feeding and had to free the discus. About 1/2 of the fin is light colored and the fish is holding the fin clamped. He/she is hiding, and hasn't eaten again today. The fish appears to be swimming fine. Should I treat or just watch and wait?

If its just a fin injury, it will recover and regrow the fin... don't worry, its probably hiding due to the stress from the ordeal.
