Couldn’t get a good picture of it with my phone.
However Dewey’s anal fin seems have gotten so small it is almost unnoticeable.
Just like a nub almost.
His personality and eating happens have not changed at all or his ability to swim.
Is it normal for that to happen?
Has no tank mates, just him in his 100 gallon home.
Also should I be treating him with anything.
Thanks everyone!

What are your water parameters?
Is the Fahaka the only fish in the aquarium?
If possible get a close-up of the anal fin.
 
I did Check the parameters today, everything is good.
(Do a 40-50% water changes weekly.)
He is the only fish in the aquarium.

I am charging my camera now to try and get a good photo or video.

Hard to see anything wrong with the puffer in the photo tbh...

If you can get a better pic would definitely help, although by the sound of things doesn't seem like theres anything wrong???

Been insanely busy with work and couldn’t find out how to do YouTube with the file in an email but here is the best snippet. I assume he is fine since he is still swimming around like a mad man(fish) when I am home.
