I do not know what is wrong with him but his fins were always closed up and it looked like most of his scales were missing. But he is looking better than before but he is not up to full health yet.

Maybe it's brooklynella. looks like pieces of skin have fallen off. I lost one of my false perculas to it.

I removed them to a hospital tank, one was dead in about 48 hours. I gave the other 15 minute freshwater dip (match the temp and pH first, and put an airstone in the dip water with the fish). After the dip, I fed him all he could eat, quaratined for 3 weeks, he is healty and back in the main tank now. Thanks to JennM for the info!

Seachem's Paraguard worked for me (daily salt-water dips in Paraguard with aeration for 30 to 60 minutes). I successfully treated a mated pair of true perculas that were infected with Broolynella. They are now 8 months old and appear very healthy.
