Hey guys i just put 2 red platys in my tank a couple of nights ago. one is doing fine but i noticed that the other ones fins are clamped. i have a 20 gallon tank, ammonia is 0 nitrite is 0 and nitrate is about 20ppm. water temp is around 78-80. any info would be great.

What is your water change schedule?

I would do at least a 25% change asap.

i do a 25% change every other day, and since i noticed the problem ive changed it to every day.

Check the symptoms against those listed at this link:
http://www.klsnet.com/files/fishchart.htm & see if you find a matching disease. He's flashing with clamped fins, so i'm pretty sure he's got a disease of some kind, but you might find it faster looking at the chart than me asking you a bunch of questions on any other symptoms he's showing.
