Should I put him to sleep?

Could it be genetics?

Doctor, that is what I was thinking but it just seems more like a wound because wouldn't a genetic defect showed awhile ago?

Olympia, For the fish it is a pretty big wound but for us humans it is tiny.

Okay, here are some better pics. he is the same as yesterday (behavior-wise)

In the first pic, he is the one farthest to the right side.

Second pic he is in between two other tetras.

When I fed him, his stomach did not turn as round as it used to (it didn't look like he had eaten at all) he had a very hard time swimming after that, almost turning completely upside down. Now he has an easier time with swimming and his body Is not as bent but I am still worried. Is there anything else I can do for him?

[aqua001]

Bump, anyone?

I honestly have no idea. I guess if he can eat fine he can go on living.

He has gotten worse. I couldn't find him for an entire day and today, though he is still alive, he is very limp and is not able to swim. I think it is time for him to go. He is suffering lots. S.I.P little one, you put up a good fight for life.
