NEED HELP NOW ANGEL FISH IS DYING

[Midasblen]

I have only really noticed this today but my angel fish is looking less colored and is not swimming too much. Sometimes he just lays down on a rock for a bit but is still breathing. The only thing I could think of was my tang causing him to stress out so I removed the tang, but i don’t know what do to now. Please help.

What’s your current parameters and how old is the tank? A pic or two would help as well!

Have you checked your ammonia levels? Also do you dose anything?

Not sure how to help with the lack of detail you are providing here. Ammonia not provided and no video. The more detail you provide the better odds we can help you.

As mentioned, more information is needed. A short video taken under white light would also be really helpful:

If the fish is laying on the bottom and not swimming, that is termed "moribund". It means the issue is really serious, and very often, the fish cannot be brought back from that point, and then, the concern is to still identify the problem, in case it is an issue that is contagious.

Thanks for the quick responses, but the angel died this morning. I guess I was too late.
