Goldfish bloated may be suffering from organ failure
Goldfish bloated is a symptom caused by kidney failure. Organ failure is common in the industry due to the overuse of salt and chemicals in the industry. The breeders use these products to reduce the risk of bad bacteria and parasite infection. The goldfish keeper uses the same products for the very same reasons. In most cases it’s unnecessary. A healthy ecosystem depends on water that is rich in mineral value and heavily oxygenated

Poison is abused in the goldfish industry. Made up of dangerous chemicals, even the water treatment we use can injure our fish. Water treatment is a necessary evil. Many of us must use it to convert chlorine and chloramines. We must rely on it during a spike in the cycle, however, this is when we get into trouble
Toxins are not eliminated by the use of water treatment. We refer to them as ‘converted’ although this isn’t the case either. Water treatment bonds to the substance in question, keeping it from harming our fish. Because they’re still present, they can be measured for a test result. New fish keepers continue dosing, thinking the toxin still a threat
Goldfish that have been poisoned need healthy water that is rich in mineral value topped with a remedy for cleansing the blood. Combine excellent water with natural remedies, and a sick fish has a fighting change. Organ failure often leads to infection due to the weakened immune system. Natural antibiotics should be used as a preventative
