My huma huma trigger is in trouble he is swimming the loopity loops, and looks real bad (floats upsode down, and breaths really fast).

Physically he looks alright, I can't see any outward damage on him, fins are fine, and he's not torn up.  He keeps his tail curled up tight and seems to favor one side, but again I can't see anything wrong.

I placed him in the sump to try to help him out, but in that this is a fowlr tank the sumo is little more then a tank with three chambers, the middle on eis full of bio balls, any way any help would be great.

Is there anything I can do to try to save him.

I hate to do him in, he is my favorite fish.  He is been acting wierd for a few days.

But I am happy to report that as of this morning he is still alive.

Should fresh water dip him, or would that be to much stress?

FW Dip probably wouldn't hurt.  besides, the way they work If he's not going to make it, it will probably push him over the edge anyway.
