Sick Keyhole???

I was checking my fish this morning and found a keyhole stuck in the rocks.
When I got it out of the rocks it swam around upside down.
It is still quite alive. The picture shows it lying on it's side, it's head is facing the back of the tank.
Does it have some disease or is the white marks from rubbing on the rock and glass trying to get out?
It's the only one in the tank that looks like this.


It died.

I'd take him out not to pass anything on to the others.  Might be a swimbladder problems, others with more experience might have a better answer.

Sorry to hear your fish died Terry, keyholes are such adorable friendly fish, but we'll leave this here as future reference for all, it may help someone someday. Especially as you have photographs
