It might be sleeping, or it has a disease(don't know which kind though, sorry). Sounds like it is on it's way out. Do frequent water changes and see if the fish recovers, but make sure the water is the same temp as the tank water! You don't want to stress a dying fish!

What does it mean when your fish is upsidedown at the top of the top of the tank but still breathing?
Are you sure the fish is breathing? On most cases if the fish is upside down it means the fish is dead, but might also be that the fish is ill, so go to the vet! :)
When a fish lays down on the bottom of the tank does it mean it's dying?
AnswerNot necessarily. Fish tend to do this when you have just changed their cage or if they are resting. A fish is certainly dead though when it floats to the top! If the fish lays at the bottom, it could mean a few things. It could be sleeping, hiding, or it could be injured/dying. You should worry if it is laying on its side or breathing strangely. If it seems healthy, the fish could just have a problem with its swim bladder, the organ that helps them go up and down in the tank. If it is a catfish and is missing a barbel, that can also mess up their swimming.
