Currently treating my YWG for a bacterial infection with Metroplex. He’s been in the QT for about 2 weeks now and everything seemed to be going great until tonight. Got home to feed him and turned on the lights to see a zombie looking fish. Super pale, brown stripes across his back and a brown streak around his mouth. After I turned on the light, he colored up slightly but it looked like he was crashing into some PVC and the glass. Usually he’s quite vigorous for food but his reactions were extremely slow. I did a 50% WC just to be safe.

These pictures do not do it justice but they were the best I could get. Any suggestions would help a lot!!
