Various Symptoms

Hi,

We own two goldfish and on Christmas Eve one of them seemed to fall ill
overnight. The head became swollen, the gills red inside, the dorsal fin was
flat to the body and the tail was clamped. The fish has very restricted
movement and often falls over onto it's side momentarily before righting
itself again.

We immediately moved it to some fresh water in a separate bowl, to which
there was a very slight improvement. We bought some swimbladder treatment
which we have administered with some aquarium salt but this has not helped
in the slightest. Now the tail is rotting and appears very ragged. The fish
will still eat if food is held sufficiently close for it to take

Does anyone have any suggestions please as from looking at the
www.goldfishinfo.com diagnostic guide it appears to be showing symptoms of
Gill Flukes, Clamped Fins, Tail Rot and Swim Bladder problems. I'm not sure
whether I am able to effectively treat the fish in it's current condition.

The other goldfish has been absolutely fine

Thanks in advance for any help received
