Good morning. How long has your tank been up and running? Do you have a test kit for ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, pH? It would be a great help if you could post the readings if you have them. So sorry they are ill.

Hi welcome to Fish lore

I'm sorry your fish isn't feeling well. It would help the members if we had a little more information.
Your tank is about 16 US gallons?
How many and what kind of fish? What are the readings for ammonia nitrite and nitrate?
How long has it been set up with these fish?
What's your water change routine?

Sorry for all the questions, the answers will help us help you better.

do you know what your readings for NitrIte, NitrAte and ammonia are in the tank if you think it may be an ammonia burn?

The spots on the fish look far too big to be Ick so my guess would be a Fungal infection but I am not sure what tratements are available in Poland. (that is the Polish flag isn't it?)

If you have high ammonia nitrate or nitrite readings your fish will be distressed and therefore their immune system will be less effective

the tank is about 14.6US and 12 Uk gals

welcome to fishlore

i agree with jonah, the white spots definitely look like some kind of fungus. if you can get readings for ammonia/nitrite/nitrAte that would definitely be helpful in figuring out what's wrong with your goldfish.

Hi Lazz

apologies I just didn't recognise the flag.

Oh I knew Goldies changed colours as they matured but I didn't realise it was quite as quick or as patchy as that.

In your aquarium infor you list your tank size as 60x35x30 now as I assumed you were Eastern European I also assumed that the dimensions for your tank were in centimeters are they inches?

It makes a big difference you seen in centimeters that makes your tank just less than 15gals in inches its 272gals obviously with the 1st choice you tank is way too small for the fish you have in it, if its the 2nd then its a palace for them. You could keep 20 goldies in the 2nd tank and none in the 1st.
