That happened to my Pixie when I first got her. I was terrified that she would die, but luckily she passed it within a couple of days. 7 years later and she's still doing great. Just give him some time and I think he will be okay.
Yeah, I used to use a 50/50 mix of top soil and coconut fiber. It started becoming a problem when there was always pieces of mulch in the top soil he could ingest, so I went back to being safe and use 100% coconut fiber now in his tank. I fed him in another tank when I use to have that soil with mulch in it, but now it's much more convenient feeding him in his own tank with all coconut fiber. The main reason it seems that a lot of people like to use top soil is that it's so cheap! You can get a 40lb of top soil for $2, whereas with coconut fiber you get a brick for like $4-5.
