Is he new? Maybe he just did not take to the tank well? We need WAY more info though, if you think you can save him...Test results, tank size, mates, filtration, WC schedule, temp, maybe full tank shot too, and any other shots you may have of the sen...Good luck.

ive had him for 3 years no probs until now, the glass is dirty but the water is excellent , virtually no nitrate ph 8.0. water change 30% every 3 weeks. the tank is a 4 foot jewel 360 litre vision. the temp is 27 all the other fish are ok though ?
