Goldfish are egg laying fish, so they do not get pregnant. If your fish is female and appears fat, it's possible that she is full of eggs, but she will either release them on her own, or reabsorb them.

How long do goldfish stay pregnant how can you tell?

Goldfish don't get pregnant. When a Goldie is in spawning condition a female will get fat with eggs, then "lay" them and the male will fertilise them externally. It's only when a Goldie is a couple of years old and in spawning condition that they get like this.


What should you do if your goldfish is pregnant and you have a small tank?

Goldfish are not livebearers so they are never truly pregnant. If you think your goldfish is pregnant than she is just getting ready to spawn by becoming full of eggs. Unless there is a male goldfish present the eggs will be unfertilized and will not hatch into baby goldfish fry. Your female goldfish will soon lay her eggs, and if no further action is taken, she will then eat them. As for the small tank, I would really recommend moving her into a bigger one.
