blind goldfish

i think my goldfish is blind, sort of. when feeding time, seem he/she always missed the food. i gave them fish stik so it floats but this one, each time try to eat, missed many time before managed to grab some.
i think not tottaly blind, cause just missed a bit to the left or a bit to the right. after few times then he got it. seems he can see but blury, or doubled. it's a pity seeing him lika that, poor fishy! anyone knows what is going on?

hi hi, no body care about this blind goldfish? or nobody knows?

just wondering what can i do, is it because of the water but i kept changing it quite often, vaccum the gravel, feed them even maybe over feeding:) i even saw this fish kind of dancing like crazy, really i felt sorry for it. seems so miserable, like so much in pain. maybe better to put it to sleep:(

maybe its just clumpsy?

but its not good to give goldfishes food that floats. They take so much air in theyr stomack while eating, that they can get swimm bladder disease.

fullt af íslendingum sem eiga ekki íslensku að móðurmáli!

goldfish with f.e. telescope eyes have very bad eyesight, I agree with Lindared, find food that sinks, it might be easier for the fish to eat of the bottom.

kannski finnst honum skemmtilegra að skrifa rétta ensku en vitlausa íslensku. getur verið auðveldara að útskýra á máli sem þú hefur meiri færni í. (og þar með auðveldara að skilja og hjálpa!) held að þetta trufli engann nema þig.
