Hello all,
I'm looking for some advice on my powder blue dwarf gourami. He's stopped eating for at least the past week, is pale and just hangs out at the bottom on the tank or on a leaf of one of the plants. He's very skiddish and when I even open the lid to feed him, he just dives and the other fish eat all the food. So I tried putting him in a carrier container so that he could have a chance at the food and he didn't eat anything there either.
I've had him since August of last year and he's never had any problems. He lives in a 15 gallon tank with two mollies and two cory catfish. It seems like he has a black discoloration around his face. Sometimes around his mouth and gills, sometimes on the top of his head.
This isn't a great photo, but it's all I could get of him with my phone.

Any advice is appreciated, I really wanna pull him through this. Thanks.
