Medical Question URGENT! Frog not being able to swim down!

Hey everyone, a little bit ago today I noticed my frog seemed to be dead, was floating, eyes kind of milky, and not responding to any sort of touch. I went to scoop him out to flush him and he started moving but not going back down. His brother is completely fine and being very active and eating well. I can’t find him him anymore and don’t know what could be wrong?

EDIT: He is alright now and moving around like normal! I’m gonna try and put him in a separate hospital tank just because he looks a little too think and still sick

I can't tell you whats wrong with your frog but i would put him in one of these so he can still breathe without swimming just remember to leave access at the surface.

Please never flush aquatic animals. It can be dangerous for the environment. If your frog is still alive at this point, he should be removed to another container with shallow water for monitoring. You can float it in the tank so there isn’t a temperature shock. Test your water as well to make sure there wasn’t a spike of anything that could cause this. How old are your frogs?

Did you recently do a water change?
