Unless you purchased your fish from a private breeder with excellent husbandry practices, the chances are very likely your fish have flukes. Its the most common issue with goldfish and symptoms are not apparent until the damage has already been done (or the fish has died). Addressing flukes with praziquantel (5mg/l for a full cycle) is standard protocol for goldfish.

wow, I just bought a pair of goldfish and they are waiting at my lfs while I cycle a 55.. Is this an easy product to find?

In the US, praziquantel is easily accessible. A good lfs (not a chain store) will carry either Hikari's Prazipro (liquid) or prazi in a powdered form (various manufacturers). Online, both Prazipro and prazi are sold all over the place. Prazipro is easier to use as its liquid- powdered prazi does not dissolve in water and needs to be dissolved first in a tiny amount of ethyl alcohol (vodka) in order to be able to add it to a tank. If you need help finding it, please ask!

I've had Goldies for years. I had a comet and a ryukin and upon their untimely death I switched to tropical fish. But seeing all of your beautiful goldies, makes me want a second tank! Jealous!

 

[Fishguy17]

Out of all the fish I've had the black moor goldfish is my favorite.

Wow that fish is amazing!!

Here are my goldies I've had about a month now. One red and white oranda and I'm not sure about the white one...He was being sold in a tank with other orandas but he doesn't look like one to me. He has a small red spot on his head but it's off center and smaller than the traditional red cap. Any ideas what he may be?
