	Sickly looking neon tetra
fish1 Banned Posts: 1727 Kudos: 1910 Votes: 58 Registered: 09-May-2004	My neon tetra which i just got today looks like he is kinda sickly the end of his tail sags to like a tilt and his fins just are healthy looking. Its not ich i know that. I will try to get a pic if i can. Should i take him out as soon as possible and treat with melafix? His fins were nipped at but i dont think thats the problem. SHould I take him back to the store were i got him from or should i try to help him myself. Any help would be greatly appriaciated. fish1

It only this neon. All the rest have perfect fins in all?? he was 2bucks so i really dont want to lose him considering i bought like 10. I think i might ask them for an exchange or something cause i dont want him to mess up my tank.
