Is it normal for a Black Moor Goldfish to spend a lot of time at the top of the bowl as if he is tryingto get oxygen or food?
No, that is not normal behaviour for a goldfish. For one, your goldfish shouldn't be living in a bowl- it needs to be in a 10-20gallon aquarium to thrive. The goldfish is acting this way because the O2 levels in the bowl are too low and it is suffering from a lack off oxygen. The best way to fix this problem is to get a tank with a larger surface area so it will have a greater gas exchange ratio, also add an aerator and if you don't already a filtration system (the best ones are probably the ones that are "biological and mechanical filters").You'll be able to see a lot of improvement in your fish's behaviour and health if you do this.
