My little glass fish got kinda smooshed

[Jinx]

My new little glass fish was kinda smooshed in between a breeder net and the glass of the tank. I moved the net and he just fell to the botton, breathing real fast. He started to swim, but only went in circles then straight to the bottom nose first. Do you think he'll be o.k? Or is there anything I can do to help him Any suggestions
Thanx

Unfortunately he probably will not be ok. He was probably close to suffocation. Just try adding stresscoat and keep your fingers crossed!
Good Luck!

IMHO I would move him to a different tank. It seems to me that if you look at them wrong, they get ich.

If moving him is not an option, I'd watch him closely.

Well, he's looking alittle bit better at least he can swim kinda stright, I will try the stress stuff though. I've never used it before, and really don't like to put stuff in my tanks, but I will try it. That stuff won't hurt the other fish will it?
Also, thanx for the quick response

Nope it will only benefit eveyrone. Stress Coat is the same as dechlorinator it just has Aloe Vera in it to promote helathy slime coat growth and heal.
