I'm scared my fish is going to die.

Is he a dragon scale?

Butterfly.

Could you get a picture from the top?

I will try to tomorrow!! He's gone and hidden away again for the night, so I can't at the moment.

He's got dropsy, but I'd still need a picture of him from the top and from his side of his belly.

I'll try to get better top and side pics tomorrow, thank you!

Dragon scale is the type of scales he has. He looks like one. If so, it may not be dropsy. I’d caution on making quick diagnosis. I don’t see the dropsy myself. Perhaps more pics will show more. Nothing you can really do for dropsy but euthanize the fish. Let’s hope that’s not what he has.
