All bacterial and once they mount up odds are against you, sadly it sounds like he has swimbladder too.
Not looking promising, sorry, fingers crossed.
 
Feldman is no longer in this world :-( He seemed to pass quickly, so I don't think he suffered needlessly.

Now it's time for me to learn from my mistakes. I tested the water in the new hospital aquarium post mortem:

7.5 PH
0ppm Nitrates
0ppm Amonia

Water Tests from Community Tank:
7.4 PH
0ppm Nitrates
0ppm Amonia


I think my biggest mistake was misdiagnosing body fungus (bacterial infection) as true fungus (fungal infection)

I tried to treat the wrong illness and that cost Feldman precious days. After the fact, I learned that it's OK to treat for both diseases at the same time if you choose the medicine correctly - so I'll probably try both if this kind of event ever happens again.

I really appreciate your guys' help for this. Please take a second to go through all this and let me know if I made any other mistakes along the way.
 
Sorry R.I.P. I've just lost my goldfish tonigh orange pip so know how you are feeling.
