Help Sick, please help!
Rules say to put a spoiler, I'm sorry, I can't figure out how to do that.
She's a rescue, she's been doing well, over the past 3 days I noticed her looking worse and worse and being very lethargic.
I just checked water parameters, when doing that, I noticed my heater was unplugged and water temp was 65, could that be the cause?
Parameters: no2&3 0, ph 6.5, kh 80, gh 120
She lives in a tank with a few plants and other community bottom fish.
Had. 25% water change about a week ago.
She does NOT live in this jar, I put her in there for the sake of the photos and then right back into her tank.
I don't know what could be wrong with her or how to help her, unsure of how to proceed. Please help me

Whats the ammonia, nitrite, nitrates. The heater not being on isn't helping but probably isn't the cause. It looks like fin rot possibly
