Hi and welcome to the forum

I can't tell anything from the pictures. If you could post some clear pictures or a 1 minute video, it might show more. You can upload videos to YouTube, then copy & paste the link here.

---------------------
If a fish suddenly bloats up overnight and stops eating, it is usually terminal.
Did the fish do a stringy white poop when this happened?
If yes, then it has a bad bacterial infection in it's body and there is no real cure.

Once a fish stops eating and or can't swim properly, that is usually the end of it and the fish should be euthanised.
