Paralized Guppy Tail

[Ammar]

hi all

1 of my female guppies seem to be paralised in the tail, she uses he front fins to move around and most of the time is hiding. her tail pints down about 45 degrees when she swims and ive noticed lately the smaller guppies are picking at the tail. has anyone had this, is there anything i can do to save this fish or is it best i put her out her misery?

thank you
Ammar

How big is your tank, is is cycled, what other fish are in there and have you tested the water?

If the poor thing can't swim very well and can only move the front fins, I think it's best to put the fish out of her misery.
