"Fractured" neon tetra - should I be concerned?

That's the first time I'm seeing a "hole" on a neon tetra. If it's still schooling, and actively feeding, don't bother. I figure it's just a physical anomaly. Looking at the top view image, it seems like it has a kinked spine. If you don't feel good, net it out and euthanise it.

i am okay with it but afraid it might die of hunger
fed this morning and it fail to consume any

some of my neons are very greedy, stomach got a lump and still eating

[Leeson]

[dnsfpl]
