quick feedback.

Yes ... definitely looks like it's struggling to breathe. The clown
lays on one side (always the same side) and moves it's body as it
breathes ... it's not a violent struggle or anything, but clearly not
healthy.

However, as I mentioned, whenever I come to feed the fish, the clown
gets up and swims towards the food. The swimming motion is not 100%
healthy (slightly tilted), but it is eating.

I feel like I should put it out of it's misery, but the behavior
during feeding confuses me.
