I'm not here to criticize but you have asked for help. From the picture the red is obviously stunted and will not grow any more no matter what you do. The others seem very poor quality. I think you bought below average fish to start with. Unfortunately nothing can be done about that. Moving forward try buy some high quality fish

Also buy more than you intend to keep....weed and sell of the undesirable youngsters as they grow.
That way you will be left with all the nicer ones
Wish you well.

Can anyone plz tell me how the stunted happen? Is it happen when they r born? Or will happen because some situration? Just want to make sure it won't happen again. Cause I used thought the fish stunted because they live in the small tank when they grow? Is that true.
And how should I take care the stunted one? Can they live as same as the normal one?
