I have a fantail goldfish and today when I came home it was (and still is) in a corner face down, nose to the gravel nearly. What does this mean? I am totally clueless. My other goldfish are swimming normally. I did a 25% water change today as well when I noticed this thinking it was the water but there hasn't been any change. Helllppp?!?!?!

What are your water parameters exactly? Have you seen him poo lately? What size tank and how many other tankmates? Goldies are prone to swim bladder problems and constipation. For starters I would feed some frozen peas and post as much info as possible.

Don't forget to nuke them in the microwave first and peel off the skin.
I agree it could just be constipated, but it's really hard to tell without having more info, as Zagz suggested.

LOL DT I always forget the nuking and peeling. I did the same thing with my stepmother and she didn't understand why the fish wouldn't eat them.
