My honey Gourami just started swimming awkwardly on it's side, sank to the bottom of the tank, flopped lay there a few seconds, flopped around some, and than got back up and started swimming normally. Looks perfectly healthy now. I've seen this happen twice, once yesterday and once today. What should I do?
