Still have abnormally swimming fantail!

So, I have done water changes, installed a third filter (with bio-balls) and bought a nitrate kit. Everything at last check was great, water-quality wise. So- my 'calico' fantail is still arcing and dipping oddly when he accelerates and swims in general. He does NOT look like my lionhead did whe he had dropsy symptoms (pineconing, swollen belly). He is normal looking in every way.

Could he be suffering still from the water quality issues of the past? Should I isolate him and treat for potential bacterial or parasite infection? How do I even know if he has these?

Thanks again for your great advice!
