Update -- not looking good for this fish

Maybe I won't have to do it for him. Now he's laying on the bottom of the bowl on his side. He's still breathing but that's about it. I think this is definitely towards the end of his life. Now he just swam up to the top to get air. He's a little to one side. I think his best moments are behind him. I think that he is weak. He can swim up and get air, that is good. But he really can't do much else. I can tell that he struggles to swim up. He's back near the bottom now. He swam up a little, I pushed him back down a few times. It was with little effort. He's back on the bottom, slightly to one side. He's breathing a little bit heavy, moderate gill movement.

I took him out and put the toothpick in his mouth a few times. Now he's back on the bottom on his side. Still breathing, but, not in very good shape.

I took him out and poked him again in his mouth with a toothpick. He's in worse shape now. He's at the top of the water vertical and not moving at all.

Now he tried to swim toward the top and then sank down to the bottom. I think he really is near the end of his life. So sad.

Now he was able to swim to the top. He's staying at the top now.

He's really weak. He's at the top, slightly on one side. Just sitting there and taking in air occasionally. He's still breathing, but that's about it. He can't seem to move that much.

He's at the bottom now, head first. He's still breathing but i know he can't be doing that well.

Now he's at the bottom on his side. He can't seem to swim up to the top at all. His skin is pale. I think it's almost over for him. He'll be dead soon. He can't swim up for air anymore. It's very unfortunate. He doesn't have any strength left in him.
I saw him struggle for a little bit and then stop. Poor thing can't come up for air. It's just a matter of time now until he's gone.

That's it. The fish is dead. I can see no more gill movement.
