My bettas sbd is just getting worse and worse, he now sits on the bottom on his face with his back end floating up

i've had him in greenwater for about 2 days now and he's not eating although i will try again today with peas. I hope that the greenwater will do something...if not is there anything else i can try? I really dont wanna euthanize him

thanks An it certainly couldnt hurt to try so i'll see if i can do that later. He tried to eat the pea yesterday i think but i cant tell if its gone or not cause the water is so green lol, i put a lamp over it and now the water is like twice as green as before lol and its also keeping the water nice and warm at around 76 degrees i think, i also have an airline in the tank since he cant really go to the surface for air.
