    Is it only this one fish that is showing problems? When I think of a blood red line in the fins I'd usually consider ammonia poisoning. Is there any way that your filter might have had a problem recently? Maybe you could do a lot of water changes for a few days and see if that helps at all. Just make sure you dechlorinate the water...

    Get a few plain water changes done first over the next day or so before you start cleaning the gravel or anything, don't want to make it worse before it gets better. I assume you know not to mess around with the filter media :) Really hope this works and your angel recovers!
