Hi guys I have a 20g tall tank with 3 swordtails 5 guppies 1 corydora a nerite and a assain snail the tank is well cycled and has been up for 2 years without any problems the water has 0 ammonia 0 nitrite and 20ish nitrates I have a huge anubias barteri that is doing great a nana version of that plant also doing good duckweed and I forget the name of the other plant my problem is that throughout my tank being setup the fishes fins haven't been able to heal if the fish has hurt them in a quarrel and I dont know why as its definatly not fin rot. The only explanation I could think of is high ph but my ph is at 8.5 and that's not terrible. I have tried adding both epsom and aq salt to the tank and in dips and put affected fish in these dips and this has not lead to any success other than increased bowel movements. I have been dealing with this for the entirety of the tank and am just asking now because one of my female swordtails I noticed is missing a pelvic fin (dont know how she lost it I assume it has to do with the make trying to breed) and she has been in the tank for well over a year I'm guessing she around 2 years old and has always been and still is very energetic. Below is a picture and the missing fin on top has been like that for around 8 months and has not healed or effected the fish in any way. Any advice helps thank you in advance sorry for the picture that's the best I can get
