This is why no matter how much you like something at the LFS; resist the urge to impulse buy.

Go home and do your research thoroughly and you wont be disappointed with your money spent.

The decay could cause a spike in your nitrates/nitrites/ammonia, so you should probably pull it out.

+1, pull it out and put it in an iodine dip for 5-10 mins. Place back in the tank in an area of higher flow and that might help it.

As stated though it's dieing for a reason, what sort of feeding regime are you using?
