I would pop im into the 50L bin and treat him with Wunder Tonic, which I think has Malachite Green in it along with some other meds.
It's amasing stuff, hasn't failed me yet :thup:
Adding an Internal Filter, to my 3 tanks, to keep the water circulating has certainly worked for me, made a huge difference.
I don't add CO2 or Ferts, and yes I do have plants that are doing well :thup:
Hoping to add CO2 soon
I have a brand new bag (25Kg) of White Silica Sand, that hasn't been opened yet
$18 which is what I paid for it, plus shipping??
Let me know what you think

"URENTLY NEED CYCLED MEDIA"
See what replies you get
I would have certainly left the gravel as it was, just chucked it back into the tank after setup, and slowly gravel clean as needed, but can't turn that back now.
So best bet now is to find some cycled media.
Do yo know of anyone you can get some cycled media off, that will speed up the ycling process.
Not a huge amount of the bacteria is stored in the water anyway, far better to try and get hold of some cycled media if you can.
I have some Metro I can send to you, just not sure it will get to you in time :-?
What size tank is it and what filter are you running on it.
Can only be obtained from a Vet.
Just not good to treat all your other fish if they don't need it, be abit like us taking antibiotics for no reason I guess.
Have you upped your Water Changes??
That would be a start
He's not sounding good at all :-?
I would up the water changes to a 1/3 3 times a day if need be, got to be better than using chemicals.
You need to treat him with Metronidazole
200mg per 40 Litre's
Preferably in a tank on his own.
Get well soon Mr Oscar
