So I've got a baby red tail. Currently about 5" in a 135g grow out with a 11" rtc/tsn hybrid, 2x 10" leopard sailfin plecos and a 12" FL spotted gar. Filtration is a 50g sump with 1800gph pump. Black diamond sand substrate, minimal plants and decorations including a hidey hole log.
So I noticed a couple days ago one of his gills is starting to curl. Some quick research showed half say it's a common deformity, half say it's a health problem. Which is it? What can I do to fix it if it is a health risk. If its purely cosmetic I can deal with it, but I want him to be healthy so he can grow big and strong and eat me.
