I've had my betta for over a year now, and while he has not always been the most active fish, I could tell that he was healthy. Yesterday, after I changed his water (I've got him housed in one of those little 1/2 gallon plastic things) I noticed he seems really sick. He's gasping for air at the top, and he's lying floating on his side. Every once in a while he'll swim to the bottom, but it seems like he's too weak and he's being pushed upwards again. He also has a loss of appetite. His body looks pretty normal, so I'm sure it's not a fungal infection. However I don't know what it is...any ideas on how to treat this?
