Since yesterday my green bubbletip has been looking really bad. It left its usual spot on a rock and was curled up (bubble tips in and it's "foot" thing on the outside). I left it for the night and this morning it looks even worse. Its tips are all deflated looking and have lost color.

I am assuming its dying, but I wanted to make sure. I took it out and put it in a bowl with tank water and food to ensure it had a chance to eat. Is there anything else I can do to save it? Any ideas as to why it's dying?

Thank you!
 
What lights? how long have you had it? water conditions? size tank?

I would have left it stay in the tank.. something might just be bothering it and it needed to move because it did not like it's environment anymore
