    Clamped fin/Partial paralysis

    We have a female Guppy that has a clamped tail and partial paralysis. She is swimming and feeding okay. None of the other fish in the tank seem to be effected. Is this something as simple as a stroke or should I start a form of treatment just in case? Any recommendations?

    Female Betta with Clamped Fins
