For me I will just leave it. If you want to take the broken scale out, you need to sedate or "transmore" the aro.

Second that, just leave it alone, it will heal by itself.

I had experience my aro jump and cut its lip, can see lip was broken that kind. After a few weeks completely healed by itself.

Bro, dont worry. Just leave it alone and it shall recover by itself. Mine has dropped that back scale for twice. Both also recovered completely after 1 week.

Can change water and put some salt to avoid infection..

If you really need to remove it. Bag the fello, apply transmore to put it to sleep, then use a pincer to remove it lor.
