Answer 1

try separating both of them in different aquariums, and good luck in whatever happens  

Answer 2

Sorry to hear about your buddie, hopefully she starts to feel better, fish can live for longer than a year! Don't listen to the poster who posted that. I would invest in a larger tank, the larger the tank, the happier the fish, your tank is not able to clean up the waste that the 4 fish give off. I would at least invest in a 20 gallon. You would be able to put a couple of tetras in as well once you have done this. For now, I would put you sick fish in a tank that has a filtration, until she is better. Don't think this is the end of the road for her, I saw your video, she isn't upside down, on her side, and is able to swim without any problems. I think that if you invest in a sick tank with filtration for her and keep her in there and upgrade to a 20 gallon, everything will work out and she should get better in time. Good luck.

I don't think there is much you can do for that fish.  It's actually been dyed that pink color and that often really shortens their lifespan.  Zebra danio's are not normally pink.

The only other thing I can say is that keeping it in that little bowl with no oxygen or agitation of the water isn't going to improve it's health.  The picture is a bit fuzzy but it definitely looks like it has clamped fins which can be a parasite problem.

5 gallons really isn't large enough to house 4 danio's either.  Overcrowding fish leads to stress and poor water quality.
