Bent Platy?

Sorry, its a 60 litre tank.

The angels really need more space. For two angels shouldn't really be kept in anything less than a 20 gallon tank.
Just keep an eye on her and make sure no fish are bothering her, as with the bending she can't move to fast to get out of there way.

Ok, thanks again.

Let us know how she gets on bless her.

Hi again,

Ive been working away for a week and Ive come home to find she's still alive but has white spots on her side.

Ive clicked the stickied thread at the top about itch/white spots but the link inside isnt working. How do I treat this before it does more damage and spreads to the other fish?

Thanks.

Whitespot looks like the fish has been sprinkled in salt.
The spots will be the size of a grain of salt.

You raise temp to 30 and increase aeration, as meds and high temp reduce 02 in the water.
Remove black carbon from filter if you use it.
Read instuctions carefully on med that you can use the full dose with the fish you keep.

Thanks for the info.

The fish is swimming a lot better now, is eating fine and almost straight. She only starts to bend in when she settles on the floor (which isnt very often now).

 

[WILDER]

That's good news then as she looked bad.
Good Luck.
