I had a platy that did that too... He died soon after that. Sorry! It just doesn't look like fun for the fish!

I'm thinking that fish is sick... maybe ith whirling disease. It happens a lot with livebearing females. I have never experienced the disease personally so hopefully someone can chime in on helping the situation.

Whirling Disease as far as I can tell only effects salmonids in coldwater. The cuasative agent Myxobolus cerebralis hitchhikes into the fishes system through Tubifex tubifex.

I guessing that this is a bacterial or viral infection attacking the neurons. I'll see if I can find out more doing a literature search.

this disease does not only affect the salmon and trout of cold waters. It's something that also affects livebearers.... try doing a literature search on whirling platies, it seems pretty common.
