I’m not sure what it is I added aquarium salt and turned up the heat 2 degrees to see if that helps but he’s been like this for couple days now

Observe and see if you can catch the Pleco attaching itself to the Bichir. If not it could be water related. Please list your parameters.

Could be water quality issues. Looks like some fin rot in the tail. Would check the water parameters quickly. Remove any sharp decor.
