My gold fish are getting big in the tummy and are rising to the surface. I think they are constipated. What should I do? I heard I should give them a certain plant but I don’t know the name of it. Please help me because my children (fish) are in a bad shape and I don know what to do. IP: Logged |

call your pet shop tell them what's wrong with your fish and they will tell you what you need to do. good luck IP: Logged |

I'm not sure what plant your refering to, but something leafy like Romaine Lettuce, NOT Iceberg Lettuce, could help relieve constipation. Also, with goldfish avoid brine shrimp. It has a tendancy to make them constipated. Hope this helps. IP: Logged |

sounds like dropsy to me, try some coppersafe and see what happens, but I never heard of a constipated fish :0 IP: Logged |

it sounds like they are bloated with eggs they wont lay them unless they are alone in the tank they will just bloat and float upside down and starve. this is what i was told by a pet shop employee. try seperating them IP: Logged |

My baby also has the same sickness, are you sure she got pregnant? She breathe heavily last night and I seperate her this morning. She poo poo with red color string, and the red string change to white color lately. She breathe slowly & floating on the water and finally die in couple hours later. I am so sad because she used to be very active. IP: Logged |
