Swim Bladder Issue

[Phyrenite]

I have been watching my Magnificent Foxface the past few days and after doing reasearch, looks like he's got a swim bladder issue. His belly is swollen as of today and swimming rapidly with it's nose down, looks constipated. All other fish are fine and doing well.

I'm trying to get it out of my DT and into QT, but I can't catch the bugger.

I have epsom salt and metro+focus ready to go, but it's also not eating and haven't seen it poop in a few day either.

Do I have any options for dosing in my DT or am I looking at dismantling my LR to get him into QT?

I appreciate the help in advance!

tagging along, I was about to make a similar post but referencing my Splendid Dottyback. I have mine caught though.

I found some good info on humble.fish's site for treatment. However I need to get my guy out first.

Here's a video I just took as well

Quick update!
Things are looking much better today, the swimming has calmed down a bit, no longer at a vertical angle and I was able to get some meds at least in the water near him in the slurry recipe humble.fish recommended on The website. He actually took a bite of nori i put in the tank.

Not out of the woods yet, but certainly in much better shape and much more active in a good way.

That is some great news. I too woke up this morning to see a fish swimming around better. I wasn't able to get mine to eat anything, but she is not acting like she was.
