Guppy got stuck and became injured, will he be alright?

One of my guppies got stuck behind the bio filter, and I found him this morning. He can swim, but his swim is tilted, and he falls to the ground often. His fins don't look to be injured (same size + moving) can he recover from this? What should I do?

Edit: looks like it might be his fin, it's moving slower than the other one. How can I fix this/ give him a chance at recovery?

 

Time, mostly. Frequebt small water chabges and aquariun salt can help too if scraped up.

Yeah that's what we plan to do. He's completely normal, it's just he's wonked out. No visible cuts or scrapes since he got stuck between the sponge. I've expanded the part between the wall and the sponge with bottle caps, now I can fit half my hand thru it.

 

Sadly, most of us don't think of that stuff before it happens. Usually doesn't take many times to learn, though!

Fr. Never even crossed my mind until it happened. NEVER making that mistake again

 

Honestly? Probably not. Sounds like he has an swim bladder injury. Keep him separated from other fish and give him regular water changes (25% every two or three days) if possible. With good enough care there's a chance he'll recover.

 

Give it some time and hopefully he'll recover.
