Default Oranda Issue

put him back into his tank if the other fish are fine, do 50% water changes 5 days in
a row, add 1 teaspoon salt per 5 gallons, no additives, dissolve first, add slowly.
what are your water quality parameters, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates and pH?

My Oranda has been lying at the bottom of the tank and seems to be in
seroius trouble. No visible signs of illness e.g. spots,fungus etc. He just
seems to be lifeless and very rarely he will swim a few cm's and then lay on
the bottom of the tank again. I have put him in a seperate tank with treated
water and an airstone. Any ideas on what else I can do to help the little
guy, or any ideas what is happening to him??

Thanks in advance
