Default dying fish!

i moved my dying oscar to a ten gallon tank, he is only a couple inches long. he is upside down at the bottom of the tank. his gills are still moving so i assume he is breathing. i bought some melafix today and dosed it accordingly. please tell me what else i should do. i dont have a substrate and ive read that, that could stress them out. any feedback is appreciated. thank you

Default Re: dying fish!

At this point I don't think there is much you can do. Just keep treating and keeping fresh water in the tank and hope for the best.
