Sick LMB

In the last 3 days my lawnmower blenny has gone from being the tank clown to being a sick, breathing hard, skinny little guy.

Ive had him for over 2 months, it was quarantined for 4 weeks. He never showed any signs of disease or illness until now. He was very shy in QT, but he did eat nori on a clip, and some pellets. After being placed in the DT, he became very active and would eat any and everything that he could, pellets, frozen, nori, and algae from the rocks, snails, etc. He looks normal as far as not having any sores, or spots, but hes breathing really hard and is very skinny and not very active at all. Everything else in the tank is acting ok and looking very good. Could this be internal parasites? Any suggestions?
 
A picture might help. So the LMB is not eating? Does it swim normally? Did you check your tank parameters? Does the feces look white or different?
