Purple tang is sick. Something internal.

Last friday I started to notice that my purple tang was not himself. Since then he has gotten really bad and I am worried he is not going to make it. Basically he has stopped eating completely and his stomach is all concaved and his bones are starting to show. When i feed it looks like he wants to eat but he just cant get his mouth open or something. His skin has started to turn whitish grey and he is showing a severe decrease in activity, sometimes just kind of hovering on his side, but not floating at the top. Does anyone know what could be causing this? I have a powder blue tang and marine betta in this same QT tank right now and they are perfectly fine. Ammonia and Nitrites are at 0 and Nitrates are at 10.
