Just bought 3 black Venezuelan cories, however one has pretty severely nipped fins, tail and both dorsal fins. i only noticed it once it was in the fish tank. other than that it's behaving normal, can swim no problem, it's just uglier to look at.

will it heal and grow back? or should i take it back? or should i just ignore it?
 
It looks like minor fin damage, either from fin nipping or from rough handling. It should heal up with no problems but I would recommend trying a dose or two of melafix to aid in the healing process.
