Purple Firefish-- Always have ragged tails?

[Anonymous]

Hey all,

Just wondering if purple firefish (Nemateleotris decora) are supposed to have neat tail ends, or do they always look a little ragged?

All the pictures I've seen online show them with scrappy tails, just like mine.

Thanks!

no, it should be smooth and neat when it is healthy.

Yup. Here's a great shot.
