deformed guppy

[mattmctyre]

well i was in the pet store the other day and i had had a few deaths in my tank( 1 gold dust mollie 2 koi swordtail) and those deaths were very random because they didnt show in sign of sickness or death. but while at the store i decided to get a few guppys and some more hornwort. well i got three guppys 1 male and two females. on the way home i get too lookin at one of the females and she looks like she was born with a defect because starting at her anal fin she curves up and down like a wave. anyone know what happened? and since the females are both pregnant(like all guppys) will her babys be deformed too? thank for help

some babies might be deformed, but not all will. could be a birth defect, or malnutrition as the female grew up.

Have you checked the ammonia, nitrite and nitrate levels to see if it contributed to the 3 deaths?
