URGENT help - my fish is sick/dying!

[Lenny]

Oh my goodness. It's like some kind of christmas miracle! He's not 100%. But there is so much improvement.
He's in a bowl with epsom salt water (rain water) and he's eaten half a pea. He's still very wonky, but he's not just lying there looking up at me with one sad eye.
Oh, i hope it's the start of good things. I'll need to put him back in the tank tonight before we go. Keep you fingers crossed.

Thanks, truly thanks to everyone. (I'd have never googled peas or salt!)

My neighbour saved her fish with a frozen pea! We've kept fish for years and I'd never heard of it until then either. Go fishy!!
