Oh thanks will try the water change and the peas. Thanks for all your help and I hope he hasnt got a twisted gut!!!

Ive only had Carrot in the small (20Ltr) tank for 2 days. I think maybe your right about him being a male because those spots are the same as the picture he also has a few spots on the top of his tail.Could he be sad that Ive removed him from the large tank with all his mates? How sensitive are Goldies?

I might take a sample of my tank water to the pet shop and see if its alright JN

I had him around a month..I think hes had white spot since I got him and Ive just had another look at him and he looks as though he may still have it as there are a few little spots on his face. Looks like acne!. There is no discolouration on his body apart from the little spots (approx 4) My friend reckoned it is the food im feeding hence the colour of the poos, but that doesnt explain why he seems sad, okay I did take him out of his tank and put him in on his own in a small tank, but even when he was with the other guys he wasnt eating much, but I guess at least he was swimming around.

Hi There, Im new to fishkeeping and this forum. I have a semi large goldfish that I brought from Hutt Pet Centre. He was brought with white spot aaarrrgggghhh. He seems to be over it now after alot of help from a fishfriend, but alas something else is afoot. He seems rather....sad hes not eating much not even blood worms. He seems lathargic just sitting at the bottom or middle of the tank. Now there are some very strange things floating in the tank eg some long and short white stringy things. My mate tells me its poos but Im not sure. One of the long ones had bits of red and brown in it, could this be worms? Ive got him in a tank on his own with nothing in it except a airstone thingy, so I could keep an eye on him. I havent seen these long stringy things in the big tank with the other happy go getting goldfishes, so whats wrong with my boy Carrot? Thanks
