I woke up this morning to find that my acara I am treating for HITH is now floating around the tank. Something is wrong with his swim bladder so I checked the water levels, everything is fine. I did not over feed him, so could it be a secondary infection (SBD)? Hope to get a respond soon.
 
Has I stopped eating? Does it’s poop look white? Are it’s scales sticking out?
 
He had stopped eating. As for the other two I have not seen his poop and his scales seem to be fine.
 
Is he completely upside down? Or sort of on his side?

Will you please upload a couple of photos of him? I need to go for now, and I will be gone for most of the afternoon. Hopefully your little guy is ok, and hopefully someone else will be able to help. :)
 
There are two severums, two acaras, and a synodontis that all seem ok. Seems like he just got unlucky
