Hi All,
I have a 7 year old male Jack Dempsey in a 55 gallon tank. He has been rather sluggish lately. I just noticed a swollen portion of his caudal fin. He has two other tank mates: a female jack dempsey and a convict. I have attached a link to the portion of his fin I am talking about. It looks looks very raw and painful. He is not using his caudal fin much when swimming around the tank. I noticed it a few days ago but it was whitish (almost clear) in color. I know he is getting up there in age but does anyone know what this could be? I know the photos are not great.
