So, I have had Dent for about a year. He is a Gold White Cloud Mountain Minnow. I walked up to the tank earlier and almost freaked out, because I thought he was dead. I went to net him out and he swam right out of the net. He just rests at the top of the tank, until something gets close, then he swims away.
He has, well, a dent in his head and a pretty bad bend in his spine, so he isn't the strongest swimmer. He swims in spirals occasionally.
I have my new gold wcmm and a Bolivian ram in my qt right now. I know wcmm like flow, but should I put a baffle on the filter, reduce the flow a little?
I will post a pic of Dent. He grew up like this, so I think it might be some kind of genetic defect. Started with a small dent in his head, it got bigger as he got older. I am afraid his deformities are impacting his overall health. The others are all pretty healthy, other than one being a bit thin. They all eat pretty well.
When I try to take a pic while he is moving, he is much to fast and it blurs.
