Deep water fish have to adapt to the enormous pressure of the water above them. Their swim bladder contains gases that allows them to regulate the depth that they are at. If they are brought to the surface too quickly a lot of times their swim bladder expands or explodes pushing their stomaches to balloon out of their mouths. The best thing to do is to poke a hole in their chest cavity not their stomach, to give them a chance to live if released.
Deep sea fish have adapted to high pressure environments and their bodies are able to function properly under those conditions. When they are suddenly brought to the surface, the rapid change in pressure can cause their swim bladders to expand and rupture, leading to internal injuries that can be fatal. Additionally, the sudden exposure to oxygen-rich surface waters can lead to gas supersaturation in their tissues, causing further harm.

Some fish are surface fish and others are not. Without you saying what kind of fish it is that is at the surface it is impossible to say if anything is wrong.

Are there any fish from the abyss that are featured in public aquariums?
I could find reference to only one. It is in the Oceanopolis in France. IT is very small and contains only shrimp and small crabs. Deep in the ocean, the pressures are enormous. Deep sea fish will die if exposed to the air pressure at the surface. They will pretty much explode, or their cells an organs will. They die. So they have to be kept under extremely high pressure. That is hard to do in large enclosures, as the _enclosure_will burst unless VERY strong. The forces on the enclosure go up as the surface area of the enclosure.

How fish die from oil?
The oil seals the surface of the water and prevents the transfer of gasses to and from the air via the meniscus. The fish therefore die of a combination of excess CO2 and insufficient O resulting in suffocation.
Do any kind of fish have to go to the top of the fish bowl to get air?
Commonly the fish we raise as pets are fish , not mammals like dolphins and whales that go to the surface to get air. The fish you raise at home use their gills , thus no they do not go to the surface to breathe. Gourami fish have a special organ which enables them to breath atmospheric air. This type of fish can't rely on breathing through it's gills alone so if it can't get up to the surface it will die.
