I just found my characodon lateralis male swimming oddly and not being able to stay upright. Is it over for him? Parameters haven’t changed
0 ammonia no2 no3
How could I help with this?

Usually whenever this happens to a fish they all die off for me, but I want to try and save him as best as I can
 
I’ve never seen any fish in that shape resurrect itself . I think he’s a goner .
Yes, sadly hopes are thin.
Okay, I’ll just hope that I got him as an old guy and it’s his time to go:(

He’s made lots of fry and did his job as a critically endangered species haha
