Hi,
my older sister just got a L191 baby recently and we notice the wired thing on his tail

It might be tail rot but I want to be sure.
thanks,
F15

Are you referring to the pink blotch right at the end of the tail?

I'm not sure what that would be, personally I would keep an eye on it for a few more days and see it it improves or changes, before taking any action. Make sure the water is clean, and keep up with water changes while it's being monitored.

Hopefully it will improve without any intervention.

A little update I went to the store she got him for some fish food today and they told me this guy got beat up by a gold nugget who used to be a tankmate of his

Thanks for the additional information, hopefully, if it's a minor injury from a fight with another fish it should clear up on its own.

Just make sure your sister knows it's important to do regular water changes, and it should be fine.
