my silver datnoid is on the side and breathing very rapidly, how do i save it, i dont have any meds for it. need help asap
 
Whats the water params? Add aeration via air stone or powerhead. Try adding some kosher/aquarium salt. 1 tablespoon per 10g. Any additional info you can proveide about the dat?
 
well. for my understanding. he got pwned by something but i dont know what. seems like the water params are fine, air is always running in the tank. also this was so unexpected i dont have the necessay items i need for it to heal the fish
 
What do you mean he got owned by something you don't know?

You could try placing him at your air pump output(right at the bubbles) for a couple of minutes. I'd try doing a 20% water change but I'm not too sure about the salt though. I use table salt. You just have to make sure it's non-iodized. Don't take my word for it though.
 
i have a silver aro, clown loaches, jack dempsey plecos and pictus catfish. i put him in the 10 gallon. its breathing and trying to move around. i dont think hes gonna make it through if he does i would be very happy.

i meant that he got beat up by some fish, and i dont know which one did it because non of my fishes are agressive.
 
I wouldnt neccessarily say that none of your fish are aggressive. I would also say its the JD, and as J said I too would lose the JD.
