Help with Lemonpeel angel

I just got a lemonpeel and It was the happiest fish I've ever seen. It swam back and forth for hour at a time, but now I notice some red in her gills and she doesn't swim around anymore. What is it, and how can I fix it? She's the biggest and most beautiful lemonpeel I've ever seen. If she dies, I don't know what I'll do.

Thanks

Gills are red.....the blood flows through the gills to pick up oxygen
(I'm sure you already know this)

You know your fish better than anyone else...........but, it could be the start of ich. Ich can infect the gills and cause the fish to breath funny.......it's called gilling

hope this helps
