    sort of he wiggles his arms and legs but mostly he just floats lifelessly on his side
    When I came home from school he was on his back near the filter. So I turned him back on his tummy

    What should I do??

    He needs a vet. He is very ill and I don't think there is much else you can do without vet assistance. If he is this bad off then euthanasia may be the only option, but you need a Vets advice to be sure.

    I'm sorry I wish there was more we could do to help.

    Go out an buy some unflavored Pedialyte and honey.

    Prepare a bath at a 10 to 1 ration. So for every 10 ounces of luke warm(80°) dechlorinated water add 1 ounce of unflavored Pedialyte. Add 4 drops of honey to the bath. Soak him in this bath for 20 minutes.

    Try this and see if he becomes more responsive. Keep me posted.

    I called all the vets and emerigency vets around and they said to call the vender or breeder I got him at, other then that I don't have 98 dollars for a visit for them to look at him.
