My gold clown knife I bought earlier today looked malnourished from the get go. I tried feeding tubiflex worms and pellets but he wouldnt take it. It just kinda floats around and swims if he feels like it. It sits on the bottom of the tank until it falls over then swims off and rests somewhere else. He also keeps getting stuck on my filter intake. I feel like this shouldnt be happening because he is 4 inches long. i have several posts about him but nobody seems to want to answer. I am worried!
 
Idk how good this would work or if it would be dangerous to do. Get some bloodworms and blend them up in some water with fish vitamins you soak fishfood in and get a syringe and force feed it. But idk if it would make it worse or not i have never had this problem with anyfish. I hope it helps

I don't what the problem is here. He swam around just fine at the shop. It's getting worse. He is floating around on his side and occasionally turns upright and tries staying upright but always falls over. Currently he is just resting on the bottom of the tank. I held him up and it looks like there is a vein that goes the kengthe of his body and it seems to have broken.or.something.because there is a pinkish red coloration moving toward his belly. And its making s big reddish spot. You can kinda see it in the picture.
