Goldfish rolling

Goldfish rolling from side to side and perhaps floating upwards is a symptom of an impacted intestinal tract which is typically caused by improper feeding. Fish should be fed small amounts often throughout the day to prevent constipation due to the fact they digest their food within a few hours, because they have no stomach

Pellets are the most popular food today, however, pellets, when fed dry expand in the tract, blocking it. Soak pellets in fish water until moist to prevent blockage in the tract

Feed less more often

Flakes should be held beneath the surface before being released with a sweeping motion. Encourage your fish work to find their food to keep them from eating too much from one time. Instead of feeding once or twice a day, feed four meals a day, but whatever you do, be consistent
