They really shouldn't be swimming like that. This could be a problem with their swim bladder, which often happens with fish, especially goldfish. Also, Orandas are more sensitive because of the bubble-like protrusions on the tops of their heads. When feeding, I would suggest mixing the flakes in with the water (to avoid having your fish gulping in air with their food), or using a sinking pellet food.

It could also be a gas problem. Squishing up a few peas (canned ones are softest, but thawed frozen ones or fresh will work also) in the tank for them to eat can help with this.

What type of fish was Cleo in Pinochio based on?

I believe Cleo was supposed to be an Oranda goldfish. she was large, social, had beautiful flowing fins that matched the oranda almost perfectly, and she had a bigger head and chubby cheek. Her body was also rounded like the Oranda. She liked to be touched. Orandas also like physical contact. you can look up an Oranda goldfish. She was a goldfish for sure but if I'm going to pin point what type, I'd say by personality and physical appearance that she was an Oranda. They're the most social of all the goldfis.
