I would hazzard a guess and say the fish is probably in trouble because of poor water conditions. How often do you change the fishes water? Water to a fish is the same as air is to us humans it needs to be clean and fresh. Try changing 50% of its water every day for a week and see what happens.

What is wrong with your goldfish it is lying on its side but still breathing and every now and again it swims around but it is not asleep?
Sounds like flip over disease. This is where the fish will lay sideways, either going close to the surface or down to the bottom of the tank. It can still swim but swims on it's side. You can Google it if this appears in your fish.

You moved your goldfish from tank to tank and now he is lying on the bottom of the tank just breathing hard?
When a goldfish acts lethargic it is usually an indicator that there is something wrong with your water quality. The most likely culprit would be either a drop in pH or a drastic change in temperature. If the fish is having a hard time adjusting, it might be best to place the fish back into tank #1 until you know what exactly is causing this issue. Water quality test will confirm such suspicions.
