What is the reason why the tail of common harpoon fish does not spread out?
Fish's tail doesn't spread out because of tail rot.
Bacteria that cause rotten fins may often appear, especially Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Vibrio anguillarum, which only harm unhealthy fish in harsh environment.
People directly call it "China Betta", which is widely distributed. Found in freshwater basins in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other places in southern China. They mainly live in shallow water pits or on the banks with dense aquatic plants. Beautiful appearance and bright color can be used as ornamental fish.
