Default Sick YellowTail Wrasse help

I've had this guy for a month, he's been very active, hunting for pods in the rocks. I've been adding tiger pods to make sure he's keeping fed.

We were out of town yesterday, so I'm not sure how he was doing, but the day before that he was fine. This morning when the lights came on I saw he was laying in the sand were he normally sleeps, but only half covered. He was breathing, but seemed laboured. Later he was uncovered, but laying there, not moving, other than breathing. My lawnmower blenny took a run at the wrasse, and the wrasse swam away, settling on a brain coral, then on the sand, and just kinda flopped onto his side again.

It looks like he has a reddish spot centered on his side near the tail, about 3/4 of the back. The surface isn't broken or raised, but it is unmistakable.

I added some corals and nassarus snails from fragalot (corals dipped with coral RX), and a bluethroat trigger from LFS- came in on wed, brought home and added to tank on sat.

Otherwise his tankmates are 2x juv false percs, 3x green chromis, bangai cardinal, fairy wrasse (they seem to pay no attention to each other), 2 spot goby (MIA since sat), and a lawnmower blenny. For inverts, 2x rbta, tube anemone, maxima clam, a few small hermit crabs, emerald crabs, and snails.

120gal tank, 150lbs live rock. Skimmer, UV, GFO, Carbon, 80deg, PH 7.99
Updated params coming.
