OMG, thank you so much!!!!! He's now in QT

Ugh! My cowfish tried getting at a feeder fish that my pink tip anemone was eating and got stung several times the day before yesterday.....now he's not doing very well....kinda just hovering in one spot and falling over......is there anything that I can do for him?????
