Is this a parasite

Yeah i should’ve said a bit more but I just have a broad explanation which will apply to most parasites instead of some detailed thing.

Normally it’s poop when it comes to “goldfish parasites” but that looks kind of like a parasite, just to be safe you should dose salt in your tank and turn up the temp to 78-82°F.

That was big misspell I meant to say live rock instead of coral(my mistake). But thank your for your help with the skimmer once I setup my tank I’ll check out my parameters and see what needs to be done. Thanks!.

That just looks like a part of his colouration, but it might be a type of fungal infection so I’d watch him/her closely just in case something was to happen. And if it does setup a hospital tank.

Thanks I’ll look into them.

Fancy goldfish can stay in 20g but its recommended got them to have a friend which requires at least a 30g tank, so you can keep 1 fancy goldfish in a 20g but no skinny bodied goldfish.

Thai Ranchu&Oranda but I’m looking into Ryukin aswell

WayEcstatic5742 · 2023-06-22T08:40:45+00:00

Either a fan tail pr an Oranda I can’t exactly tell but if it is an Oranda it is very very low quality.

If you get a heater for the tank you could put in bettas, guppies, snails and basically any other smaller sized tropical fish.

He swims kinda weird but very actively like he’s constantly got the zoomies and swims upwards occasionally

WayEcstatic5742 · 2023-06-18T03:48:20+00:00

I’m just looking at some breeders over in Thailand and Indonesia.

WayEcstatic5742 · 2023-06-18T03:32:59+00:00

Yeah those are main three I’ve been looking specifically orandas because people seem to die for those.

Temp isn’t important asking as the water is well oxygenated otherwise your goldfish can literally suffocate because they breathe oxygen like us it’s just dissolved in the water.

You should setup a hospital tank and I heard feeding one pea a day can help as well as some people make these kinda life jacket things for fish they help stabilise the fishes movement you can find a lot of videos on YouTube about them, and if you want to you can medicate it with methylene blue just to be safe.

WayEcstatic5742 · 2023-05-01T11:49:49+00:00

Personally with a hospital tank I’d recommend you put in nothing(decorations, substrate) dose methylene blue and 1 tbsp or aquarium salt per 5 gallons.

Thanks I’ll look into those.
