Much better numbers. Keep checking everyday and changing water when needed and the tank will be cycled in no time.

That fish looks like he hasn't eaten in a month. I think he may be too far gone and the best and humane thing might be to euthanize the fish.

I don't like them because it isn't natural and many species are line bred to get the long fins.

You would have to fast the whole tank, it won't hurt the fish to go a couple days without food. But if it is pooping a lot then it's not a problem.
