Angelfish laying on side

[blairsmith]

One of my Angelfish has been unable to right itself for a little while now and is constantly laying on its side on the bottom, Occasionally swimming in small vursts. I have isolated it. If I hand feed it will eat but currently is unable to get food on it's own. I'm wondering if anyone has any advice. Worst case I do have clove oil if I absolutely have to go that route.

How old is the Angelfish? Do you notice any white spots (ich) on the fish? Any other signs of disease? Is the tank cycled? Perform a test for ammonia, nitrite and nitrates and report here.

I'm sorry but once a fish lies down there is usually nothing you can do for it.
