This is just my opinion so take it as you'd like but another day of that and I would consider euthanization. At this point it seems like alot of suffering, if its still not taking food its slowly starving to death and ending its misery may be for the best. I know its hard I keep livestock (farm livestock not talking aquariums) and ive had to put alot of animals down over the years it never gets any easier but all that should matter is the animals suffering coming to an end. If theres no signs of improvement by tomorrow I would put it down for the sake of the fish.I do notice one eye is looking cloudy. I just took a viedo and I tried to show the other eye:

Edit: I again stress the no signs of improvement. I'm no marine fish expert, if its showing ANY sign of improvment disregard what I said.

The fish has been getting better. The eye could be a result of laying on that side. If he starts swimming again soon the eye can heal. Consider blending fish food turning off the flow for a minute and feed through a small tipped syringe or pipette

Yes, still fighting. But no real change between today and yesterday. Idk. It’s a bummer. I got hope for a bit there but today he seems the same. No worse and no better.

I wanted to update everyone.
Day 6- this little guy is still hanging on. He’s doing better but still not 100%.
he has been in MB since Saturday, as well as I’ve been pumping oxygen into the tank since Monday.
he can now swim and stay mostly upright. He’s not 100% but still doing much better.
Here’s a viedo from a few min ago:
