Petco gave me this adorable little man for free since he was/is on death's door.

He has pretty bad swim bladder issue as well as a little bit of fin rot and he is extremely skinny from not being fed.

I have meds coming to fix the fin rot as well as treat him for any possible parasites.

I have treated MANY fish for swim bladder issues but something doesn't seem right with him and I want to get some additional opinions.

He has no food in his system ( the employee admitted to not feeding him for 5 days at least) so I know he isn't constipated. I can also see quite a bit of air in him as if his swim bladder went into overdrive.

Oh and I should mention I have a large Indian almond leaf in the tank with him to help his scale issues and fin rot while I wait for meds to arrive.

Update: Just gave him a salt bath. Will see how he looks in the morning!
