Need help with a danio.

crazyk213 · Jan 15, 2014

My son has a 10 gallon tank with a few tropical community fish. Water test looks fine, I do all his maintenance when I do my 2 big tanks. Anyway, he has one glow light danio the seems to be bending or something. His tail is like bent up is a weird way. Any ideas a of what may cause this or if it is repairable?

I have a white cloud with bent up tail.it was a birth defect.if your fish was smaller when you got it, it could be just showing up now as it grows.my fish seems fine not sick but just looks different

it's a spinal problem of some sort. there's nothing to be done, but that doesn't mean it can't live out it's life just fine like that.
I had a guppie female that bent into kind of a U shape after giving birth. she lived fine for another 2 years like that. it also made her more interesting as she liked to "land" on leaves and wood to rest. she was kind of like a helicopter with the other guppies more like planes.
