Firts thing jumps to my mind is, aeration! Do you have enough water moment in you tank, I'm not a fish medic to help, but they will want pictures, possible video of fish under daylight

I would think that it likely isn't a swim bladder issue as whatever is going on is affecting both fish.

Welcome!!

Once I saw what happened to my clownfish. I was starting a small pico, so I knew many things could go wrong in the beginning. It ended up being a jump on my ammonia and nitrates levels. Another time it was that clownfish liked to sleep near the corner of the tank and close to the surface.

Just wanted to share my experience. Hopefully you can solve your problem and continue to enjoy your animals.
