Shape Change

Any body have any idea as why my sunset platty has changed shape he seems to have taken on a hump back almost arch shapeed, its still eat and swimming around fine, been like it for a week now, also noticed of my danios has gone arch shaped but he dont look to clever resting on the bottom gasping for air

TB maybe but I'm not definate. Maybe look it up or some kind of internal parasite.

That resembles Consumption as my mothers Goldfish just suffered very similiar symptoms and got a sunken stomach and lost it's equilibrium and sadly died today. I would isolate the platy and raise temperature and add salt just see if there is a improvement at all then research some treatment possibilities.
