Questions About Ich And A Bent Guppy ...

[WILDER]

The fish dosn't look to skinny in the pics.
With the poo being a normal brown colour it pointing towards fish tb. Spine bending, loss of weight, sunken in belly.

But I'm not willing to say 100% fish tb, as i'm not a vet.
We can only try and guide you.

Yea sure, dont worry i understand, you are a great help! Thanks!

Just one last Q. Lets say it is fish TB, if i keep it in the aquarium, am I putting my other fish in big danger? Or is the damage done? Its just that she doesnt seem that ill, just looks funny

It's always wise to move sick fish from main tank.
Yes you are putting other fish at risk. Some fish can survive fish tb if they have a strong immune system. But it will kill the weaker fish.
Any other fish showing symtoms.

Well, it seems I didn't have to wait too long, she passed away last night, not sure if it was me moving it that killed it or its illness ... whatever it was.

None of the other fish are showing any signs, but will keep an eye out. Thanks again Wilder for your advice.

RIP little guppy

Poor thing.
R.I.P.

Water changes on main tank.
If any changes get back to the board.
Good Luck.
