Foxface stuck to overflow
When i woke up this morning my foxface was stuck to my overflow leading to the sump i freed himand he would just float around and get stuck nto one of my pumps so i moved him to my quarantine tank where he isnt looking good at all. He is floating around near the top of the water breathing fairly heavily and he is going where ever the water flow takes him the weirdest part is during the whole time he has never moved his back fin once only his to side fins. Is there anything i can do or just wait and see

That sucks. He must be pretty small I guess?
If it were me I think wait and see is your best bet. I think he'll recover. Just give him a good spot to rest. The quarantine area, is it attached to the water column of the main tank? Or is this a separate system? I would want to keep him in the main system, somehow, without any threat of him getting stuck anymore or anything.

without a real diagnosis (and how would you get on anyways) your best bet is to wait and see.
Is the fish eating? If so, some selcon might help... Other than that, you probably cant do much outside of hope and keep stress to a minimum....

How big is he? Ive seen fish die from this, but if he's still alive when you caught him then there's hope.
And what's with foxfaces lol. Mine jumped out of the tank while I was fooling around in the sump the other day... Cant imagine the 6 foot fall felt very good but he's showing no signs of it effecting him so far.
