Freak Fish Accident

He died in the night. Too bad because he was one of my favorite fishes.

If the tank isn't too large, I'd dose with a low-grade antibiotic or
Melafix to help him through. Infection would be my biggest concern
right now.

Good Luck.

I think the big thing right now is a possible fungus infection, I think a
fungacide would be best.
