Seachem reef dip is what I always had on hand. Mix with tank water in a bowl per instructions. Hope it pulls through.
I agree ^^^^^ seachem (brand) Reed dip, it is iodine based and will help. But you might want to out in a higher flow. But I would highly recommend you think about fragging the healthy parts you can and dip it again.

My Goni is also having issues and has been for a few months. Recently I have seen some improvements after a 30 minute bath in seachem reef dip and feeding it fish eggs (I am using reef nutrition brand). So maybe a dip followed by feeding can help? Gonis react so dramatically to changes and seem to improve very slowly so my general advice is to keep hoping and go slow

Looking at the pic looks like it’s getting tons of light even at the bottom of your tank. I bought a frag just like that from my local fish store and the owner said the biggest problem is people fry them with light. Mine sits in the bottom corner of my tank maybe 50 par and loves it. You should try a lower light part of tank
