Platy sick?

[1919]

I have 4 platy's right now and there are 3 that are healthy and swimming around together, then there is one who kind of hangs out alone. He is kind of skinny and sometimes he will go to the bottom when I am out of the room. He will always eat though. Is he sick? What's wrong with him?

I have a similar problem. I think the other platy bullies him. Curious to see what suggestions you get.

yeah I am pretty sure that he is getting bullied because all of the other three stick together where as he hangs out alone. There is also some fin nipping going on... Anybody have any suggestions for platy's bullying?

There is one male and three females... the male is one of the guys who hangs out in the group of three
