Title: paralyzed gourami?
Post by: bhajun on November 28, 2006, 09:02:37 PM
don't know how else to put it, but one of my gourami fishes looks like it is paralyzed from its mid-section to its tail.
i do not know whether this is disease related or neuro-muscular injury of some kind.
i guess i am posting to determine whether there is a way to 'fix' the poor guy or not. the other fish in the tank treat him as one of them, so he has not been outcasted at all, although he's usually the last to get food.
his swimming behaviour is different due to his condition. he uses only his pectoral fins and his dorsal fin. his tail and anal fin appear to be 'out of commission'. he swims at an angle and vertically at times, but is able to stay horizontal for the most part.
any and all help / suggestion as to what might be going on would be appreciated.
thanks,
bhajun

it's likely a genetic neuromuscular condition and has no potential for 'cure'. if the fish is not being attacked as the weakling in the tank, and is otherwise eating and able to make a living, i'd just leave it alone. be alert to future issues which often face weak and/or injured fish and euthanize the fish if it becomes a problem.

Et siis ei olegi midagi teha? Aga et just siis emased. Ja mõlemad. Vanem emane küll pisut varem. Esmalt arvasin, et ta hakkab surema, kuid sellisena on ta mul juba ca 3 või isegi 4 kuud elanud. Nüüd noorem (2 aastane) ja ka emane- täpselt sama moodi.
