Got these zebra danios 2 days ago, he was fine this morning and after feeding them flake food, he's stuck floating at the top of the water. he's still quite active as you can see, but he's not going down and seems to be slightly floating on his side at the top.

 
This might be a case of overeating / getting to much of air in its stomach.
I'd leave it and see what happens. A little fart probably can solve this.
 
Maybe lol, but it's true. The air goes in one end (the mouth) and comes out the other end (the butt). Yes, fish do fart.

For the OP, stop feeding dry food for a week and put them on frozen or live foods. If the problem has fixed itself after a week on frozen and or live foods, then the fish has an issue and should be euthanised.
 
So he just died now, could he have died because of the food air bubble? Or does this mean its something worse that happened?
owww no sorry to hear.
Could be but not that plausible to me.
Keep an eye on the others
