Hi.

I have four Snow White about 3.5" in the planted tank with some other discus for more than 6 months. They are very pretty and growing reasonably. Two weeks ago, I found that one of them laid down at the bottom of the tank. I immediately took it out and put it in the hospital tank with TDC (contains formalin) and raised the tempurature to 30 C. I noticed that its pectoral fin is moving normally and it was looking for food, but the tail fin is not moving porperly. It has been in this condition for 2 weeks. No sign of improvement nor deteriation.

Please give me some advice. I really want to save it. Thanks.

It must be nerve damage or paralysis. It will either get better on it's own or not . . .

Hi Carol,

Thanks a lot. I hope it can survive. For the time being, I'll continue to bath it in the hospital tank... Thanks again.
