sounds like swim bladder problem. Anyway can you remember what was done prior to his condition.I think right now it is best to lower the water level to a point where it is just nice for your aro to swim and put in some internal bacteria medication.Hope it will help

bring the water level down to 1 1/2 times the height of your aro like what harley said.

I am really sad to know that your RTG did not make it.

Maybe there is something else that is attacking your fish. Sometimes, water quality may have also been the reason. I had one aro died suddenly when I made a water change.

Sigh!!! Another fish down.
