blackmolly said:are there any other symptoms? could it be being bullied or harrassed by other tank mates? is it eating? is it possible that anything could've spooked it?
blackmolly said:ok, so what are your water parameters? do you have a test kit? when was your last water change?
Mumma.of.two said:Do a PWC as soon as you can as a precaution.

Since you don't have a test kit, I suggest you do a 50% pwc and see if he perks up a bit. If you have more than 1 paradise fish, bullying could be a factor, but that wouldn't necessarily lead to the clamped fins.
what type of loaches?Ok i have a 90 litre tank (20 gallons) wich has 4 platies, 2 apple snails, 10 pond snails, 5zebra danios, 4 american flag fish. And 3 paradise fish.
I know i shouldnt have 3 but i need my brother to get his tank sortedso i can give on to him.
But they havent bullied it or eachother plus i have 3 loaches

absolutangel04 said:Yeah, do a big pwc and see what happens. Honestly, I wouldn't put my money on no bullying happening. Fish have away of doing it when you aren't watching them. 3 in that tank with all the other things is really too much IMO. But, you already know that and are trying to fix it, so thats good.
Let us know if he perks up any after the pwc. What is your usual pwc schedule? He is the only fish showing issues, right?
Mumma.of.two said:That's A LOT of fish you have there. The sooner you can test the water the better. I'd advise twice weekly 50% PWC. The paradise fish is probably very stressed from over crowding and poor water that comes with over stocked tanks.
