I found my answer surfing the net (the answer is yes).

I know they eat decaying plant matter but do they eat decaying meat also?

He's not rubbing his sides, it's more like he's trying to get out. He looks like he's having spasms almost because he's trying so hard sometimes

update: his color seems to be returning but a bulge on his side was really bad for a while and gotten better. I think it might be from/excacerbated by really aggressive glass surfing (back and forth motion, i guess flashing, it's hard to know if that's what it looks like though)

Did you figure out what it was? My fish has the same issue

Do a really cold tank, because that's what I want to see. Get some small anchovies or some other small schooling fish

maybe nothings wrong, or maybe he's bored

What do you think these spots are? THey're mostly green now. THere's the big one then lots of smaller ones. http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u370/greenmouse2/P_20170511_124722_HDR_zpske05nfbo.jpg

As far as I know it's a logical question, I know nothing about pregnant fish

But what if it's gravid?

you sound like you need meds, but they might make things worse if there's organ failure. I didn't know what my fish had so I bought two antibiotics (one for aerobic, one for anaerobic) and an anti parasitic. I wish I had gotten something specifically for fungi You could also use clove oil...

Because I had to make sure.

Well I'm stumped then.

Do you have any Cloudfish in the tank?

What kind of fish is it? It looks like a Betta with really bad fin rot but I'm a newbie
