is he getting harrassed, i mean does he have wounds or fins nipped. maybe i he the weakling of the tank and the other fish finally realised it. If no others are sick i assume your water is ok. how big is the tank and how many hidy holes are there.

But if you can place it in a tank by itself and see if it gets better
