How do you know if your goldfish is died?

Answer 1

If your goldfish is lying on its side it may be suffering swim bladder disease. If it is tilted on an angle then you should look at its gills. If the gills are moving then it is alive and if not it is dead. You can also test if it is dead or not by poking it gently on the gills and it should be moving its mouth. If your fish doesn't move its mouth then it is dead. If it is dead DON'T flush it down the toilet because it is really bad try burying it in your backyard. If you do flush it down the toilet it could lead to problems with your toilet or the water system.
