Came to work to this, Can you guys let me know if he's hit with this?

This morning he looked fine..
 
This is certainly not a good sign. though I am not happy to say it, but i'd remove this one and euthanize it.
They don't show other signs of (quite rare) real NTD to me, but it could be false NTD (Columnaris) to my believe.
 
Fish is now in fish heaven :( He was not looking any better.
 
Keep a close eye on the others. Real NTD is contagious as h*ll. When other show signs, you might have to take stronger actions !!! Hope they won't !!! Succes !
 
Signs of NTD
 
Red area will look bleached out.
Blue area will have a milky substance, or a yellow golden colour appearance.
Black lining around the tail area.
Fish will leave shoal.
Fish will become restless.
Fish will sometimes lose alot of weight causing the fish to look skinny.
Bent spine.
Swimming in an odd manor.
Later stages dropsy, popeye.
 
Other fish are not showing signs right now, hopefully it's case closed.
 
I culled a whole school of tetras once because of NTD, then lost the angels that were in the tank to the same thing. Highly contagious!!
