Deformed baby Rhom.?

I was trying to figure out if this is normal for baby Rhoms. To have its lower jaw always open like this? Got this little guy when it was almost an inch. I feed it a varied diet of trout, tilapia, shrimp, and halibut. It's currently 2.5 to 3 in.

Anyone else have a Rhom. That looked like this?

Probably a broken jaw.

Probably a broken jaw.

As it was getting bigger it's jaw continued to grow like that. When it was an inch it looked perfectly fine. Yesterday was the first time it's ever been netted to get moved to a new tank.

If it broke it or injured it while young it would make since to get worse while growing.
