My goby isn't doing very well today. He hasn't really eaten since I put him into quarantine, and he isn't swimming well anymore. He's kind of crawling around the bottom of the tank, it's hard to describe, but it's not a healthy looking movement. He doesn't look alert today anymore either, kind of dopey. Is this the drug maybe? I'm currently treating with Neoplex.

Here's a photo from this afternoon:



I appologize for the poor quality of the photo, my quarantine tank doesn't have very good lighting.

Sadly, I don't think he will survive. Especially considering he has quit eating now. There isn't much you can do except to continue what you are already doing, and offer small amounts of food. If you have a turkey baster, maybe you could get the food right down in front of him.
