Hi,one of my goldfish just sits on the bottom of
my tank and only moves when I feed them all.
Don't know what type he is,but he is silvery white
with a red/orange growth on his head.
All my others are fine,any ideas?

Thanks.

John

do 50% water changes for 5 days in a row and see if the fish is moving around more.
add 1 teaspoon salt per 5 gallons, no additives, dissolve first, add slowly to the
water and to the replacement water. Ingrid
