floating frog! please help!

Please help.....my african clawed frog has been floating for the past couple hours tonight. I thought he was dead because when I touch him he doesn't move...just floats around. But when I moved his bowl (he's still quite small and young) he moved! I don't really know if he's dead or alive or what's wrong. I dropped him when cleaning his bowl today but he was fine.

Does your frog look swollen or bloated? How well is he eating? What is his environment like?

Hi, well I just picked Gollum up and he was stiff. So he died for some reason or another. I'm not sure why.

Thanks. I hope I get another one too. His buddy Ernie (my fish) misses him.
