Corydoras lost their whiskers?

i have just taken 3 more out of the tank with sharp gravel. the tank they were from has quite bad water quality(have just done a waterchange though)

They three i just took out have no whiskers at all left and that area is quite red. What can i do to make the whiskers grow back faster?

yeah I've had this problem as well - seems the smaller cory's were more likely to get damage than the bigger ones...

Def seems like the whiskers are growing back although one in particular had lost them right back to the mouth and it looked nasty :(

I've got 8-10mm Blackwater gravel in there and I hadn't thought it would be too sharp for corys... do most people keep them in tanks with a sand substrate or gravel?
