This fish has been getting worse over a longer period of time. It does not seem to be related to swim bladder issues, but more neurological. I suspect that it has gotten an aneurysm or brain damage some how.

    What were they getting stuck on in the tank as it was? It still looks really bare. Maybe it’s all in the breeding.

      They would get wounds by trying to get to food in the driftwood cracks and i had one that got stuck between a fitter sponge and the glass. It fought so hard to get away, that it lost the scales and some of the skin on the side towards the sponge.

      My last injured fish i still dont even know how and where she got injured. It must have been while trying to get to some food but i dont see where it could have gotten stuck. Maybe the annubias?

      Its not uncommon for fancy goldfish though. They are really clumsy
