I just walked back to the tank after studying and nacho jr is missing!! After looking around the tank 5 minutes later he shows up on the sand breathing heavily and his partner taco is biting him hard!! They've been together since RAP 2016 so I have no idea what happened they were fine before. He is really sick and weak and his eyes are popping out when i netted him he didnt even struggle at all and when he escaped the fish box he got sucked into a pump on the side of it. Also his skin is all blotchy ans his eyes are popped out and his fins are bitten!! Heres pics of him :

Also thet were fine like litteraly 50 minutes ago, and thru the fish box taco is "flinching" nacho jr (swimming fast to attack then quickly skrrting to a turn around)
 
I am truly sorry, but he is done.

Let's look at helping the others in your tank.

My suggestion would to treat with a kanoplex, bound with focus with the frozen. To help with the tank immune systems, dose vitamin c and b-12.

What is wrong with him is there anything i can do to save him

Everyone else in the tank is acting normal
 
Her you go, link
 
Between bilateral popeye and the overall blotchiness, I'm thinking there's something seriously bacterial going on with Mr. Nacho Jr.

You may find something here you can use: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/bacterial-infections.191511/#post-2196167

Tl/dr version; try a wide-spectrum course of antibiotics - Furan-2, Metroplex & kanaplex are a combination that's worked for many here.

^^ Agree with Bruce. What probably started out as an injury (compliments of Taco) has now gotten infected. :(

If Naco survives this, the marriage to Taco is over. Divorce proceedings to be held at Chipotle. :D

Not looking to good for nacho jr. I don't think he will make it through the night his breathing is heavier and i can tell its hard for him to keep up poor nacho jr
 
But not sure if i was just mistaking before but now nacho jr.s eye is not popped only 1 now
