Yeah i have 1 moos but its a sideways vid so i was gonna wait untill he came out of his hiding place to get a straight 1, i will upload it anyway and let you have a look mate then get a better 1 when he comes out ;)
 
Update on my TSN, he still cant keep his balance fully, im begining to think its something internal aswell as his pectoral fins, he really tries hard to swim around but ends up swimming upside down and round in circles so just hits the floor and lies there for a while.

The only time ive had a fish do this is when i lost my 2 large silver sharks, but they died 1 day later so he has lasted alot longer than that, it has me really comfused right now :(
 
After looking at the video looks like he has a swim bladder problem, like he cant keep himself on the bottom :(
 
There is some treatment, but as far as I know its just an antibacterial type of thing, as it was caused by another fish not sure it would do anything, someone correct me if I am wrong though, years since I used anything like that.

Have also read salt baths can help? again not sure, its not something I have ever had to do.

Sorry cant be more help, I'll do some Googling and see if I can see anything.

Ok matey, maybe i should get some salt for his tank and see if that works, i dont really like using anything for any sort of illness i prefer to do it the old fashioned way.

I suppose i have no other options now :(
