Please help my sick singapor angel

[Chappy8]

I have had my singapore angel now for about 2 years with absolutly no problem. I feed him seaweed selects, flake, and formula 2. Today I noticed he didn't come out when I feed my fish, so I looked and found him hovering in one corner of the tank. I just pulled him out of the tank and have him in a small tank. He doesn't eat,or swim (only hovers). His fins are really torn up and so is his body(Scales showing flesh like), but i think this may be do to the crab I inherited when I bought live rock. Yes, I did see the crab over there. No new additions. Please help!
P.S. Mouth a little read and he seems to be twithch when hovering.

Try some MelaFix.

My guess is it is too late but the first thing you want to do is reduce the stress on the fish, so moving it into another tank or whatever is probably only going to hasten the inevitable. If a crab could get at it, it must be pretty close to death. Is there any evidence of poisoning or disease? What are all your water parameters? Are any of the other inhabitants showing any signs of disease or stress? Is it possible the food spoiled or became contaminated?

I have notice the crab in there for about 3 months so I know that the fish had to have some disease to allow the crab to get him, so I don't think it is only the crab. Other fish are 2 damsels( I know but not them, they are wimps) and a false clown and they are fine and well.
Update: Last night I put the angel in a smaller tank and placed the smaller tank inside my aquarium. I then fed my fish some formula 2 and and added a little into the angel cage. At first he showed no interest but then he began to peck at the food on the bottom until he got most of it. As I just came home from school I now know that my fish does have a disease because his right eye has started to puff out and is considerably larger than the left.(Pop-eye disease?no cloudiness) What can I do to save my fish? I will update you later tonight to tell you if he eats again.
P.S. I do have some left over myacyn 2 if that will help.
