Oh man. I think its just some blockage but you should look into epsom salt to flush out his bowels. Or even some clear if that doesnt help. I would feed him pellets that have been soaked in a mixture of epsom salt and some tank water for two days and let him take a break for a day and continue treatment for another two days. Make sure you do larger water changes everyday because it will hard water quality substantially. If that doesnt work or at lest improve it get some clear.
 
I don't think it has anything to do with the fish's bowels. The swelling is behind the anus so that leads me to believe it is not related. I would post this in the disease section of MFK to try and get more input. I hope he makes a speedy recovery, and that other members can help. Keep us updated.

I dont think anyone would do surgery. I would personally breed it and keep the stunners just in case something happens to it but it looks like it wont bther him
