  i noticed 1 goldfish having a possible SB problem
  everytime it swims, it tends to 'wriggle' and cant swim straight unlike the rest and when i isolated it, it floated at the top upside down. but when it noticed i was ard, it struggled to swim away but even so, i can tell it was having some sort of problem. the tail end seem to be raised.

  hmm... overturn ardy?
  wat u can do is move it to a smaller tank n give it more oxygen..
  the chances of it surviving is very slim lor...

  i once had such a goldfish like it..much more serious. for some reason my family asked me to isolate it and i slowly watched it die. it was having more probs trying to swim straight and often laid at the bottom and when i thought it was dead, i tapped the big bottle holding it and it swam away.
  
  one day, it didnt move anymore.
