Hey All

This Cyp is a male Utinta and just started coloring up. He has this strange body shape and I'm just curious if anyone knows what the cause is.

I got him when he was about half an inch and has always been this shape and he has no noticeable disabilities. He swims and eats and is now trying to spawn just like the other cyps.

I think his body looks like a helicopter so I nick named him "chopper"

Any ideas?

Thanks

Stephen

Well, you definitely don't want his genetics. If it was my fish, I'd put it down. Never fun to do, but it's better than spreading the genes that caused it.
I actually went in about 11:30 PM and turned the blue moon light on and was able to catch him while they were all sleeping, which was actually pretty cool.

I have a small iso tank that isn't being used for anything, so I put him in there.

He won't breed and I didn't have to kill him. I feel good about that.

Thanks
