Fish is sick.
No idea what kind,
GF says it's a guppy. (EDIT: It is a guppy)

I put the sick fish in an isolation tank.
Still sick. So I put his healthier buddy in, hoping he'll inspire the weak one to live.
Separated the 2 after an hour, now the sick one is living in a vase...,

I live in a place where any commercial medicine won't arrive on time.
Any homemade solutions, or should I just look into ways to end it's misery.
The fish seems to be fighting to live.

At first he was sluggish, then stayed at top, without balance, then went to the bottom.
Laying on its side now.

Thanks!!! for any help, just don't want the little one to suffer.
 
You could try adding kosher salt or aquarium salt if you have any and giving him a bath in it. Check if he or the healthy one has any wounds/spots/fuzz.

How much salt? Gave him a pinch before starting this thread...
 
It's all crap, cancel it. I like to keep api general cure, prazipro, medicated food with metro and kanaplex.
