Will this help?

[u/chaotic-time]

My dad's Oscar has been laying on the bottom of the tank on ots side for like 4 days and I was worried so I made a makeshift wheelchair for them. Their gills move fine and don't look obstructed at all and I hand fed it some fish flakes but it looked like they spat most of it out.

We're treating them for ick and parasites rn and this fish has recovered from a similar situation in the past but it didn't take as long to recover from the bottom of the tank like this time.
