Expert Answer

After losing scales an angelfish needs about 2 to 3 months to regrow them, as long as the spot does not get infected. Recovery time relates to growth stage; younger fish heal faster.

The new scales may not match the original arrangement exactly, but this usually does not affect the fish’s appearance.
