Is My Fish Dying???

[smokeythebair]

I had this red devil for three years now and he was fine. Now for the past two days hes laying on his side on the bottom. No swim bladder problems because when i touch him he swims around and looks fine and balanced, but goes right back to the bottom laying on his side. Plz help if you have input. ty

Water is fine and all the other fish are fine.

Can you separate him and up the temps a bit, to see whther his organism reacts?

 

[smokeythebair]

any other input? Im going to do a water change again now. Any other help or ideas would be greatly app!

the only other thing i changed in the last year was for the past week i was giving my tsn raw shrimp but i don't think that would effect the rd because the tsn ate the shrimp as soon as they hit the water.

Try adding some epsom salts to the tank.

I add aquarium salt and prime every wc. Also do water changes every wk of 75% for 3 years with no problem.
