Aquarium Advice Regular
Hello all,
I'm looking for advice on how to treat my platy that has a bent spine. I've searched all over the web and it seems that its not treatable, and I should just 'put it to rest'. Is there really nothing I can do? This is the second fish in my tank that has such disease. The first one died after 4 weeks or so, and I dont really want another fish to end up the same.
Can you tell me what really caused this bent spine? Is it contagious to other fishes? I have 5 other fishes in the same tank, 2 of them are newborn fishes, and I really dont want it to happen again.
