TAKE THE CRAWFISH OUT!!! slow movers 'like Koi" and crawfish do not get along at all. Whoever sold you that didn't ask you if you were mixing it with anything or are retarded for not telling you that. Get medication for damaged fins and scales "tetracycline" If you keep the crawfish in with the koi you are killing your koi... but try feeding the crawfish alot, keep him full maybe he wont go after the koi, but if you value the koi get rid of the crawfish..

With 3 tail fins, it sounds like you have a fantail goldfish. Yes the fins and scales will grow back, if it does not become infected. The tail fins will not look and be as strong as before. I suggest you separate the two and treat the goldfish with tetracycline as a preventative for infection.

take the crawlfish out. they will want to eat the kois. and to fix the damaged parts, put the kio in a small tank, freash water and put a conditioner in it to soothe and promote regrowth. hope that helps. and good luck with catching the koi coz kois are very strong.
