My Kole tang is swimming around but his body is curved to the left for some reason! Never seen this before. I had to have my filtration off last night because I was adding new return but didnt have the correct fittings so I put an aerator in for oxygen. Not sure why is isn't well. still trying to pick things off the rocks and stuff. Plz advice asap

Dont they also swim upside down too? It is almost like his spine was bent and then set free. Really weird

Looks like someone stepped on a crack. Lol. All joking aside. I've seen this 1 time in the past and the fish corrected itself. Dont know what caused it, or how he fixed it. Sorry not much help
Ok thx will keep an eye on him

Has the Sailfin shown any aggression towards the Kole.
When i added him he showed off when the kole was in his territory but after a few days it went away but now the kole is in his territory again so he is showing off his fins again but thats all. No fin picking
