I have had the fish for 3 years. Raised it from fry. It is 10 inches now and scraping constantly. He always did it a little bit more than the others, knocked some scales from time to time but never to the point of concern. But now he is messed up, stopped eating and staying in a corner. He never gets picked on he is the boss of the tank. No new addition to the tank in a year, and all are properly quarantined.

Live with 6 other big haps in a 125g at 78°F. 0-0-10. pH 7.6, at least 50% water change a week. No other fish is exhibiting any flashing behaviour. I tried doing bigger water changes and using salt, then prazipro and still not working. Any ideas?
