My Target Mandarin started acting funny earlier today. While he was swimming he acted as though he was having a hard time keeping his hind end down...it kept trying to float up over his head.

My other Mandarin is fine..all the other fish seem fine. The water params are same as always...

Even at lights out..he was grabbing onto LR...and his butt kept rotating up in the air..he was having a hard time staying down..then he disappeared into the LR where I'm hoping he was able to find an upright position.

Is this what the problem is? Is there anything I can do for him?
