 | Mutated Betta Fry? |
Jaylene_Grasshopper   Hobbyist Posts: 50 Kudos: 61 Votes: 7 Registered: 09-Sep-2004   | Hello everybody. This may sound crazy, but I sort of think one of my Betta Fry is mutated. I'm not entirely sure, but could you please tell me the cause: right near his caudal fin he has a hunched back. It goes in a lump as if it was squashed and then down to normal. What is up with that?
