Still breathing heavily. Very fast, labored breathing.

He's probably a goner, but you've done what you can. Sorry.

You wouldn't happen to have anything like Stress Coat on hand?

Might not be the same thing but I had one of my clowns go into my overflow and I stressed the hell out of him trying to get him out. It was late at night when I got home from work but when I was able to finally get him out and back into the tank he went straight to the bottom and to his side, I had to be up in 4 hours so I left him alone, got up 4 hours later took a quick peep and he was still struggling on the bottom. A few hours later I text my wife to see if there were any changes and she was happy to report he was fine and swimming like nothing was wrong, he's still with us so I hope yours is just stressed and will pull through, say a little prayer and keep an eye on him.

Was thinking the Aloe Vera it contains might help with the gills.

I figured that was your train of thought. Unfortunately, I don't live that close to a LFS. Maybe I can get that at Walmart.

Would it be okay to dose Stress Coat to the QT with the regal tang in it?

I got the stress coat. I'll dose it according to directions on the label.

No meds (like copper) in the water, right?
