came home to fing my little golfdish traped between the magnet cleaner and the thermometer. only fins one side of his body are working.

what shall i do.

I'm not sure what you can do as a long term solution. But for the time being, turn off the lights and leave the tank dark. That can help ease stress for him. Also, adding a little salt can help to perk up fish. The usual dose is 1 tablespoon for every 5 gallons.

treat the fish with melafix.
this will aid in the regrowth of the fins and help prevent any secondary bacterial infection.

good luck
