Koi remains alive on his side.

Question by Varthouse Reward: 100 Pond Points + 10 Knowledge Tokens Status: Answer selected by AnswerPond
I have a koi that I removed from the pond as he was on his side and appeared dead. He was not dead so I placed him in a smaller sheltered pond area. This was 7 days ago and he is still alive but he can only remain on one side. I tried to turn him over but he cannot turn to his other side. Thought maybe a fin was missing but not sure. It might be there but not functioning. What should I look for? AND what should I do?
