Thanks Andy!!! I just try to create a sterile environment. My method has always worked and I think this poor fellow was just so ill. He's maintaing in his pot perm bath but we will see what tomorrow will bring. I have seachem kanplex (kanamycin), focus, and metronidazole. I will try these after his bath.
I'd strongly suggest the Kanplex first while going to the store and asking them for a treatment's worth of furazone (for free) since they obviously sold you a tainted fish. ( I'd be happy tho with a reduced price for the med ). You can explain what you do with your fish as preventative which makes the timing only prove that the fish was infected before you got it. A reasonable store should help you out
( PS: I'm a former manager of a reasonable store so I know )
Good luck
