Is my betta fish dead or sleeping?

It can be difficult to tell if a betta fish is dead or sleeping because they often rest at the bottom of the tank. Look for signs of movement or breathing, such as gill movement or slight body twitching. If there are no signs of life, gently tap the tank or move the water to see if the fish reacts. If there is still no response, it is likely that the fish has passed away.

When the goldfish is sleeping and if you touch it does it move?

Goldfish and other types of fish do sleep. They do not sleep like people because they must keep moving water over their gills in order to breathe, but they do relax and go into a sleep-like state. They will chill on the bottom of the aquarium and won't move much. They will wake up and move around more if you touch them while they are sleeping, or if you turn on a light because they have no eyelids. This is why you should never leave an aquarium light on all night.


Is my fish dying or sleeping?
