I received a regal angel 4 days ago and it seems to have developed some sort of swim bladder issue. This fish did not ship well and started off pretty bad. It was originally laying at the bottom of the tank and breathing very rapidly. Within a day it was up and swimming normally and just today a buoyancy issue
It also has a whitish scratch on the back of its body right before the tail.

I did a freshwater bath when I first received it. The regal has not started eating yet so I dosed metroplex and kanaplex directly to the tank.
I also have nitrofurazone in the water.
I have methylene blue on hand if you guys think it will help. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
