It is similar to FW hole-in-the-head, Hexamita. Feeding more veggies can help. If it's not eating their isn't a hell of a lot you can do without using a separate tank and chemical treatments.

that what happend 2 me twice u have to take water out the tank in 2 a quartine tank
for 4 days and if it dosnt feed leave it for another 4 days it took me 12 days and my lfs was right it worked
just feed it frozen or its favourite food and put it back in the tank
