Stop attempting to feed for a while and do plenty of water changes. He should be fine after a few days.
 
You need to treat him with antibiotics ASAP. It could be septicemia. My FH had it and I treated it using "fin and body cure API" from petsmart. It contains Doxycyline hydrate. Don't feed him anymore. Use Epsom salt, increase temp up, 25% water change.
