blonde naso sick.....HELP!

When I woke up this morning I noticed my blonde naso tang laying on the sand with labored breathing. The last 2 days maybe I noticed that she hasn't really been eating as much as usual but didn't really think anything of it. My water parameters checked out ok, but over the last few days I had been treating my tank for cyano with a product called chemi-clean. ALL of my other fish are doing just fine. No scrathing, no signs of ich or any other external disease can be seen. They all are aggresive eaters too. They are all acting like they have been since I bought them.

Is it possible that it ate some of the cyano or is having a reaction to the medication? I would think that if it was some sort of water posioning that my little clown gobies would be the first thing effected because of their small size.


I should probably mention that it is a 120 gal reef tank.

Right now I put her in a container stuck to the top of my tank so it won't go off behind the rocks. Poor thing is just laying in there :(
No signs of being picked on either. I'm getting a QT ready for her also.

Well it's been over 8 hours now, she's still doing the same, swims very little in the lrg container. I'm still waiting to make more ro water for a water change in the QT. I also fired up the UV sterilizer in my main tank to kill any remaining traces of that chemi clean.

Any input would be appreciated
 
well, she made it through the night in the QT. She refuses to eat right now.

No one has a clue as to what could be going on here????
 
ok more info, if you bring her to the top of the tank she will quickly sink head first, then lay there up side down... which I have read that can be a sign of some sort stomach parasite

any help please
