Pectoral Fin Injury?

Made a post yesterday regarding one of my female guppies potentially having a swim bladder issue. Fasted the tank yesterday but haven't noticed her poop at all so I decided to place her in a salt water bath for 10 mins. She's now in a 2.5 gal bucket as the other guppies in her tank seem to be nipping at her. While monitoring her, it doesn't seem like she has control of her right pectoral fin. Could it be injured? Is that what's causing her buoyancy issues rather than something being wrong with her swim bladder?

Swim Bladder Issue in Female Guppy?

Hi all! I have this female guppy which was purchased from a lfs a month ago and she's been healthy up until now. She resides in a 20 gallon tank with 3 other female guppies and 3 female platys. I noticed yesterday and Saturday that she had stringy poop but other than that I haven't seen any abnormal behaviors. This morning however she's been reclusive, mostly staying at the bottom near my crypts. I also saw her "wobbling" when swimming. Could there be an issue with her swim bladder? Do you guys think her gills are irritated as well? Ammonia is at 0 which rules out ammonia burns and her tank mates are all doing well so I don't believe it could be parasites. I'll be fasting the tank today to see if she may just be constipated but the wobbling worries me.
