Okay so I need help. And FAST! I've got a male betta who I've had for a short amount of time now and today he decided to show me that he indeed does know how to jump. I was cleaning his water like I ALWAYS have and I put meds in it because I expect him to be sick and I left him in a little bowl for awhile to let the medicine dilute in his water. LIKE I ALWAYS HAVE. Well, this time I come back a few hours later and he is out of the bowl and in the tub no longer moving. He moved when I touched him so he wasn't completely dead, just totally black on the side he was laying on. So I tossed him quickly into his new bowl and at first it wasnt too bad. he floated vertically with his mouth above the water and he swam just fine when I chased him with my finger. Now however is another story. He acts as though he is paralyzed and only his little fins would move. I can twirl him around in the water and he wont move. I still think he's breathing and he moves after awhile of bothering him. But not very far. He just twitches a little. Well I'm very worried about him and I don't want him to die. Is there anything I can do, or is all hope lost? PLEASE HELP ME! (link)

First of all, putting your hands in the bowl is a little dangerous. You should never do it often, or at all exept when you are cleaning it. If he is jumping out, put a lid over the top. If he seems stiff, he might have had a reaction to the medicine or something in the water, or the temperature. Maybe you should take him to some kind of vet. I hope this helps.
