Why is my fantail goldfish always floating upside down?

Asked by JmacOroni (3293points) March 5th, 2011

He’s not dead.

As long as we’ve had this fish (2 years), he has done this. He will float around on his back near the top of the tank, then randomly flip over and swim around energetically. In fact, before I asked this question, he was floating at the top of the tank watching me.. and then he took off swimming right afterward.
Is he playing? Do other goldfish do this?
