New flamefin tomini tang acting funny

Picked up this tang Wednesday to add to my two dwarf lions in my 75. He did great until today. He looks like he is progressively losing the will to swim as this Sunday continues on. I think he may be a goner. He was definitely displaying dominant behavior over the lions yesterday and the possibility that he got stung does exist. do lion fish stings cause temporary paralysis that may explain my tangs sluggish behavior?

Some depressing fish pics

Sometimes it seems like a 50:50 gamble when you bring a fish home.

Sorry about the tang, not sure if a sting from a lionfish could cause this, can you see anything on the tang that looks like a wound? How does it's breathing seem?

It died an hour after I posted. I have had fish die from various ailments and usually it is a several day affair. This was the most rapid decline I have seen.

So sorry about the tang
