Maybe a photo of your tank and the fish in question may help.

Don't put anything in until you know what the problem is.

We need pictures and video of the fish. Put video on YouTube, then copy & paste the link here.

What does the fish's poop look like?
Is the fish eating?

If the fish has stopped eating and does stringy white poop, it is dying and should be euthanised.

If the fish eats normally but sinks to the bottom when it stops swimming, it has a swim bladder problem. There is no cure for swim bladder problems and the fish should be euthanised.

Looking back at your previous thread, it seems that you have not taken the advice given in regard to the aquarium or its substrate

rosy barb can't swimming and stay beside the rocks and stop moving very unusually

and i added salt to try to save her life till now she alive but beside the rocks to save her balance i think but can't moved her arms or any plz any known about this tell plz

Did you follow any of the advice given?

Your fish have been in distress for quite a while now...and where did those two Angel's come from?

The aquarium is entirely unsuitable...as was said last time when another Rosy Barb was struggling in an uncycled aquarium with incorrect substrate

I even gave you a link to a Saudi aquatic supplier of proper substrate and equipment....

Please do the responsible thing...euthanise that fish and sort the aquarium out properly before getting any other fish....and ideally return the Angels to where you got them til you can look after them correctly

If you are going to keep the Angels you will need a much larger aquarium for them which could prove difficult with your location as many of the larger aquatic items are imported into Saudi Arabia from the UAE or Oman.

There is a chain store with several branches in Saudi Arabia who might be able to help you source a larger aquarium plus everything that you will need to cycle it and aquascape it etc, you can call or email them and see what they might be able to do for you (They have branches in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Al-Khobar)
