I was looking at the purple harlequin rasboras in my tank today and I noticed that some of them have a slightly red colouration on their fins.

I have checked the water parameters:

ammonia: 0 nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 30-40ppm ph 8.4

Sometimes the fish are stationary but a lot of the time they are active and move about. One of them has a slighly damaged dorsal fin as though it was bitten off and another appears to have a bloodshot eye . Does anyone think this is something to worry about? They don't seem to have any problems when feeding them and my glowlight tetras seem to be fine.
