I recorded the video, she has always been chubby just seems extra bloated this week. The white one

Look from top, if scales are sticking out it is dropsy and is most likely too late, would recommend pressing on the belly to release what ever is bloating it (eggs,fluid etc)

Oh my lord try treating for internal parasites and checking out Luke’s Goldie’s videos and only put her down if she is suffering

 

[Fishyboy🐟🐟🐟]

He has some experience with egg bound goldfish

Unfortunately they usually die at the end but if she has survived a month maybe there’s a chance (also press harder(

To put her down if need be use clove oil and follow Luke’s Goldie’s instructions

I used to have a bunch of fancy’s and their baby’s but they all died from a mysterious disease and I only have 1 goldfish baby alive

It’s not dropsy or she would be dead but try feeding raw garlic
