I've had a fish with a missing gill plate before, so it could be a deformity, in which case you wouldn't want to breed it, anyway.
If it's a deformity, of course, it won't grow back. If it's torn off by aggression or injury, some of it may regenerate, but he might need some preventative meds against bacterial infection.
Whatever the response from the shipper, please post in the review section rather than out in the forum. That's what it is for! :thumb:
Any chance of posting a pic?
