Hi everyone, I recently obtain a yellow tang and it has been laying on its side most of the time at the bottom of the tank. I acclimated it to my 60gallon tank while my 90 gallon tank was being set up. On the first day, it ate mysis and nori. Show stressed signs, swam droopy, and hid. I had to drain my tank to move it for the new tank and placed it back in the 60. Definitely got more stressed from that, but now it would go to the nori clip and swim away and lay down in the cave. I felt like it was getting too stressed in the 60 and decided to move it into the 90 gallon. It laid on the sand bed in the back corner for the whole night and morning. When I came back from work, it has moved to the other side of the tank corner and is still laying down on the sand bed.I’m not sure what to do, it’s not eating. I tried soaking nori in reef nutrition and garlic. I’m in the mist of building more rock work so it can have more hiding places but I’m waiting on glue. I try nudging it and it stiffen up but wouldn’t swim. It’s super skinny and I believe it has swim bladder issues due to being so skinny. What can I do? It’s in with a small tomini tang, thinking it would do better with another fish. Please help. Photo attach is on the second or third day when he was in the 60 gallon and not eating.
I don’t know if it’s internal parasites or something, I got general cure and maracyn two for meds.
