I have two goldfish. Today while I was cleaning the tank one of the goldfish swam up and touched my hand with his mouth. He kind of let me rub on his side. Is it safe to touch goldfish or not? The other goldfish is rather large. Recently he has developed a place on his side that looks like a "stretch mark"...it is a place where there are no fins and it just looks stretched out...what is it?
