Is it fish TB

Fish TB cannot be easily diagnosed from just a bend in the tail. Most of the time, based on how the fish is formed inside the mother, some can be born slightly bent up. Most fall out of this awkward shape but it is not entirely uncommon for them to stay deformed. If he is otherwise healthy, I would let him live out his life If you start to see other signs of illness that may indicate the above posters suggestion of fish tb, then you want to remove him asap.

Eyes are first then body then it just kinda drops off and the tail is off to the side. I'm going to let him live and see what happens but yours is your choice
