Dwarf Gourami Not Well

[Spiceweasel69]

Looking at my male dwarf gourami, he is on the surface, like theres high ammonia in the water. All other fish are fine, water is fine as iv checked. Did a 50% change and put lights out. He is struggling to swim, like theres a weight attatched to his tail and he is struggling to stay at surface, and is constantly upright. Im thinking maybe swim bladder? Looks a little bloated but not too bad. He is about 2 years old, dont know life expectancy, but his partner passed away a few months ago, again all stats were normal.

Swim bladder sorry, and he's in bad shape, i would put him in a container at the top of the tank.

Well sadly he passed on. Found him at bottom of tank. No bouyancy at all, He sank like a stone when i tried to net him out.

Thanks anyway - will keep watch on others.
