Hi,
I'm not sure, but my cories seeem to be pickier tha usual, they don't take tetra bits? Thye only like worms. Can worn out barbel cause them to be picky? I'm not sure but i feel my cories barbel are not as long as before? I'm suspecting its the river sand i added. I'm going to take out the sand. will worm out barbel grow back?
thanks.

No,its not the sand.Just put it in a tank with out sand or gravel.then just feed it worms untill its barbels grow back.also remove any pointed objects like wood,rocks,gravel or even decor and plants.The short barbels could cuase it to not like tetra bits.

I removed all the sand, and currently feeding them frozen bloodowmrs, i think my rabautis barbels are more affected 
My arcuatus seem to be ok . I've added melafix to helo the barbels heal.
