I just cleaned the water, I did everything normally, but I think I messed up in a huge detail... I usually take the same water he's in to clean everything else, but today I took tap water, and I'm afraid the temperature was different.
While I was cleaning, I noticed he was jumpy and I just did everything faster, and when I grabbed the bowl I place him in while I clean, I notice 2 things: 1, he wasn't moving, at all... and 2, there was some food, which I didn't put in there, so I assume that he "threw up".
Right now he's already in the clean tank, laying at the bottom and breathing kind of heavily, he swims to the surface like every 2 minutes and then he goes back down.
I've had him for 5 months, and this is the first time he's acting like this?
Did I just killed the fish? or is he going through something else?
