I bought a Kissing Gourami for my tank, and he has not eaten since he's arrived two days ago. He has either floated at the top, or stayed at the bottom of the tank. He's almost lethargic. When the filter pulls other fish down (due to the current) they usually fight it off, but he let's it push him all the way down. He almost likes to shove himself into the ornaments and barely move for long periods of time. (Here is him in an ornament - not moving, thankfully I used my net and carefully scooped him away). People have commented on him calling him "dead like" because he isn't moving?

If this isn't swim bladder, can anyone inform me whats going on and how to help him? I would rather see him out of pain then suffering so any information would be greatly appreciated.
