Goldies Fancy Tail Has Bended

[linux442]

hi guys,

part of my goldfish tail is bent as per pic below. it wasn't like that, it happened few weeks ago and i though he may have hurt himself and it should heal soon

i first had then in 1 liter bowel for 5-6 days and then realised how cruel it is and the ammonia and loads of other thing such as ammonia, nitrite and .. so bought a 20liter and people adviced that is to small so anyway they are now in a 190 liter tank

what comes to mind is as follow:

1. his tail is bitten or nipped at by my black mooor
2. the bowel was initially very small and his buddy has deform but i only kept him in there for 5 days and in a 20l tank for 20 days and now in 190l so would few days in tank does that to him? he was really small and had plenty of space to swim even in the small bowel



i have placed a circle around the tail and the below is the best pic i could take while he actively moved around

It's quite common for fancy goldfish to develop bends in their finnage as it grows. As long as it's not red or fungused looking, I wouldn't worry about it.
