did i accidentally kill my two goldfish?

i'm been procrastinating, in terms of cleaning my fish tank. i've had benny and joon for nearly a month, and the fish tank has desperately needed to be cleaned. well, today was the day to clean it! decided the poor fish could use a clean home. don't ever remember changing a fish tank previously. manda showed me how to change the tank. but after i put the fish into a bowl of water while i cleaned the tank, they became extremely still. when i put them back into the clean tank, with new water and the special water drops, they were floating on the top for awhile. i knew they weren't dead because their gils were moving. but, they kept floating on the top for awhile, sometimes on their sides. was i supposed to put those special drops in that bowl of water????

they seem to be doing better now. perhaps i just shocked them for a spell. poor fish. well, at least they have a clean home, for now.
