I'm not an expert by any means but have you tried holding it with its face towards a powerhead to increase flow over it's gills? it might help, it looks bad.

woke up and checked on him and he is breathing and looking around ... I was shocked to find him still alive. It's like he is paralized

Doesn't look good.
You can kill fish with even a light smack on the head.

It's been 24 hrs with no change... I don't know if I should put him out of his misery or just continue to let him float around the tank. Any suggestions? It doesn't look like he is going to recover.

if you were to euthanize, how would you go about it? what's the most effective way to euthanize a fish?
