Best Answer

Fish naturally loose their scales, but if your fish are loosing many scales at once, its not natural. Goldfish may loose their scales if they are stressed. If you get another fish, try medicating the tank with something like MelaFix for a while to prevent that from happening.

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.

How long does a female common goldfish stay expectant?

Goldfish lay eggs which are fertilized and develop outside of their bodies so they are never really pregnant. If you mean that a goldfish is looking pregnant than it is either very sick or filling with eggs. She will soon lay her eggs and if no further action is taken she will then enjoy eating them.
