cory stressed, after 2 days he still wont get up

[Sgooosh]

this is an update to the previous thread i made...
so he is still just sitting there, sometimes eats a little, and he seems full. no body injuries, his top fin is a little down.
all others are fine
just got a new light, that may be the reason? but already its been 2 days

 

[HoldenOn]

Have you added anything else?

 

[jonny-5]

Keep the light off or lower it for a day see what happends, Try feeding some frozen bloodworm,,That usually works to get them moving

So this is what happened to my beloved cory ToT

how to save him? Aquarium salt???

 

[DoubleDutch]

I'd euthanise it. To far gone to me

ok.... how to do it when i have none of the stuff

 

[DoubleDutch]

Blast on the head ?

 

[Sgooosh]

Blast on the head ?

.... with a hammer???

 

[DoubleDutch]

Yeah for instance.
I'd prefer clove oil but a blast is an instant dead (not nice to do though)

 

[Sgooosh]

UPDATE i made a grave for him, R.I.P. green cory....
i did a 0.133333.... % water change and planning to get 2 more cories, this time i will get the stronger ones

 

[DoubleDutch]

But did you euthanised it first ?

This looks like red blotch disease. An internal bacterial infection.
A condition that often appears in brand new set ups / in brand new sand.

I don't think it has to do with stronger or weaker fish.

i eauthenized him what should i do? melafix or should i wait it out for the sand to be better, i think it is because he got hurt on a rock or something, it is a wound rather than a blotch, and the tank was here for less than half a year
