At the beginning of this week I bought a Black Moor goldfish and a Leucistic goldfish. We put them in with a liv plant and a filter, with colored gravel at the bottom. They looked very happy for the first few days, swimming around and digging and eating. But one day we found them float and barely moving in the fish tank. we hurried them up to my tropical fish tank and they are now doing fine. Any ideas why? we brought it to the pet shop for the water to be tested and they said it was perfect. They are doing fine but I would really like them back in the kitchen. It's ten gallons tall and I don't think the problem is the oxygen. There was also a weird coating of bubbles and slime at the water's edge. My pet shop said that it might be the fish's protective slime, but other than that they were just as puzzled as I was.
