Default Dying (?) fish

Have a red and white comet, it appears to be on its last legs, lying
at bottom of tank,only swimming when it has too . It was brought
home from the pet shop about a year ago, is there anything I can do
to put some zing back into it? As a year seems a long time for a
goldfish but people have been telling stories of when they were a kid
they had a goldfish for 5 years.



They have been in the same tank for the year so nitrite and ammonia
levels should be ok and I can think of no big changes in their tank that
would cause this change in behaviour, water has been changed regularly
(40% every two weeks)and algae removed when the water is changed

This post contains no hidden meanings, no implications and certainly no
hidden agendas so it should be taken at face value. The wrong words
may be used this is due to my limitations with the English language .
