First question, have you checked all your water specifications, including temperature, ammonia, nitrite's etc? Check your salinity level. If all tests good, you may have to let nature run it's course. How long have you had the fish for? If it's a new fish, that may be half the problem there, it may be stressed.

If what the other reefers suggest checks out ok look into making sure you have enough oxygen in your tank. Should always have a quaritine tank on stand by.I'm leaning towards fish added to early after cycle, or not enough oxygen. Never take any measures or treatment untill you know what's happening goodluck

Turn the heater on... to about 78 degrees...Do another water change cleaning the gravel best you can.....and you many want to wait a couple of weeks to add anything else...Sorry to hear about the fish buy you are going to need thicker skin to stay in the salt hobby...
