One of my house mates has decided to move and left his fish tank unplugged and drained all water in the 5.5 gallon tank except for maybe 4inches. There used to be a school of black neon tetra but i found 4 live and 5 dead tetras. Out of the 4 I found swimming in little no filtered water, I have already lost one more so I'm down to 3 tetras. 2 of them look awful and it looks like one might be "coughing"? I've never had any black neon tetras so I'm not sure if this is how they swim or if he's maybe just stressed?
Any ideas of how to save these little guys would be greatly appreciated. I already have a 10 gallon tank but I might get a new 5.5 gallon tank for these guys if they survive.
PLEASE HELP!!
Forgot to mention that they have been locked in a dark room with only natural light that came through a window with dead plants floating around as well as their dead tank mates. As of right now still have the 3 tetras but only 1 is looking promising
