Best Answer

If your goldfish are sitting at the bottom of your clean tank, you need to ask yourself these questions. Number one: do they have split fins? If they do, they have a desiese called the split fin disiese. To cure this, go to any pet store and ask for split fin fish medicine. Follow the directions on the box. Second question: are they moving? Or are they just being pulled by the water flowing? If they don't appear to be moving, your fish our probally dead. Finally:did I remember to feed them? Perhaps your fish are tired or hungry. Answer these questions first, then if you answer no to all of them, I don't know whot the problem is.

This is usually caused by too much of a difference between the tank water temperature and the newly added water, or too much of a PH difference

When you change water in a tank, you should never change out 100% unless there is a drastic reason for this.When doing a water change, you need to make sure that the temperature of the water being added back in is the same as the old water, and use the recommended dosage of water conditioner such as Prime or Amquel+
