sixline seizure

okay, so this isn't a disease, but I thought this was the most fit place to put this.
I recently had an "oopsie" and didn't get all the hair products off my hand like I thought I did
and put my hand in my tank
and my sixline wrasse had a seizure almost immediately upon my hand entering the water. so I netted him and put him in QT and did a water change in the display tank he was in
(this is the first time i have successfully netted him in the 2 years I've had him, and I was even able to pair my maroon clowns in less than two days...)
he's looking better now, still swimming slow-ish and he's releasing the slime stuff they make slime beds with and defecating, probably from the shock
I know this is all my fault and I already beat myself up over it, please don't get mad at me... this fish is evil anyways and killed off a lot of other fish by ripping them up and he probably deserves this but I really don't want him to die
Are there any things I can do to reduce stress and help him to get better?
What are the chances he won't make it?
 
okay, he's better now. was acting like a butt and being all upset about not having any rocks in the QT
I released him back in the display and him and my pearlscale butterflyfish had the most joyful reunion haha
but the royal gramma wasn't too happy that he came back
eh
he's thoroughly checking every nook and cranny to make sure its how he left it. glad he's okay even though he's a big butt
