he is going to get a very bare 5 gallon tank as he seems to be blind.He crashes into everything.
Yes I know all the 'rules ' about tank size for goldies but I am not allowed to have any more tanks and he is a very little fish although full grown!Only about 2 inches including the tail which appears broken at the base.
He does not have any fin or tail rot.
The people who had him had him in a 20 gallon with 2 big fish and he never really got to eat. He does get sinking pellets and duck weed but he is not interested in greens. perhaps he can't find them. fasting him for a few days has not made one bit of difference to his condition.
I also underfeed him so as not to irritate the problem.
He is such a sad looking critter!He prefers to stay under his live plant. he ddoes not even try to eat the roots on it which is odd as my other goldfish eat everything in site.
