My damsel has not been himself lately. I noticed it about a week ago. The first thing I noticed was that he was having trouble swimming normally. He's usually very active doing laps around the tank all day long. Now he just kinda hangs around in one area or sometimes in the corner. He had also been very jumpy when I walk by or when I try to get close for inspection. He also now has a spot on either side of his dorsal fin that looks like it is rotting away. This is new I have just noticed it today. I was thinking a swim bladder infection possibly due to his trouble swimming normally. I plan on putting him in a hospital tank and medicating, but I don't know what medication I should use or if that's really what I should do. I've had him for a couple years now and don't want to lose him! Thanks for any help!
Ps I'll try to get a pic up of the fin erosion.
