Goldfish keep dying

Go to a decent full time forum like koishack.com where they have folks
that know what they are talking about with koi and goldies..not some
Bozo like Zebulon the troll putting out plagarized or erroneous info.
I do believe Dr. Solo and Gill Passman answered your question
correctly though. As you can see CArol adlibs a bunch.....

Koivet forum is old hat and slowly fading away just like USENETs
groups as most foks woth a darn left koivet 2 or more years ago...ONly
idiots like Carol aka Zebulon hang out there.

I have a 55 gallon / 220 L freshwater tank with 12 goldfish in it (mixture
of blackmores, shubunkins and comets). Recently they started dying at the
rate of 1 per week, so we end up replacing 4 a month. The oldest are 2
years old.

Your tank is horribly overcrowded. Each goldfish needs at least 10 gallons
to remian healthy. I have two 55g tanks and keep no more than 5 or 6
goldfish in each tank unless they're still small and young. By the time a
year passes there are no more than 5 per tank.

What could be going wrong? This was an established tank and then the fish
suddenly started dropping like flies...

Try www.koivet.com . He's a licensed veterinarian.... also Google
goldfish+disease etc. Good luck.
