Hey! I am in need of some help, I have a Dojo Loach who I think might have a physical disability? maybe? Her pectoral fin on one side is bent up, Shes been like this ever since we got her and now that shes bigger (about two moths old) when she gets over excited like during feeding time she spazzs out like swims errotically all around the tank like almost in a viberating was and is eather upside down or on her side when she swims. There's no marks on her other then a slight hump in her back almost where the fin on the top is, its barley noticeable. Im just a worried fish mama.
Thanks for any feed back!

Dojo loaches are spazzes anyway, and have some pretty erratic antics, so I wouldn't worry about that. If the fin was malformed when you purchased her, I'm sure she's likely learned to compensate for it by now.
