Hello all, had my gamma for a few months now. He started to scratch himself on the sand and rock for a few days now and I woke up this morning to him at the bottom of my tank. Any advice ? I'll try to catch him to do a fwd

Here's a link of what he's doing

Does he get up and swim around at all? Does he respond to food at all?
They can pick weird places to hide, so I’d want to rule that out before assuming any disease.

He started swimming normally now but he's hasn't eaten since yesterday , flakes or frozen

Keep trying to feed. Have you noticed any new aggression towards it?
The video is blurry, but I don’t see any visible problems other than the lethargy.

Either picked on by another or onset of parasite possibly.
Gotta eat. Give a day.
Behavior is certainly odd for this fish.
