Male goldfish develop tubercules around their gills just prior to breeding. This devolpment is then accompanied by "driving" the female/s around the tank, until he can get her into some plants, ideally, where she lay her eggs, and he will then deposit his sperm. If the whitish, tannish "lumps" appear all over the body it may well be ich, which is easily curable with a salt bath, but can be fatal if left untreated, and IS highly contagious! rsg
