Why is my goldfish going crazy swimming around the tank?

Answer by  gummie (738)

My goldfish goes crazy when she sees me. I think she's happy to see me, but she's really hungry. Feed her. Also, check the water's ph balance.

My goldfish always come to see me. Even after they have just been fed. They all come to the side where I am. They are NOT hungry. They are very healthy & good water.

Goldfish have short term memories. Once he circles the tank completely , he's already forgotten where he is and where he left his car keys. So he starts all over.

My goldfish always does that, even after it has been fed. It doesn't mean that its hungry, it just means its energetic like most goldfish. I hope this helped you!

My goldfish is doing the same thing. Only fish in 3 gallon tank. She / he is crashing hard into the side of the tank like she is being electrocuted. I unplugged the filter and it still happens. She is 8 years old and may be at the end.

You are tapping on the glass, and you go crazy too if some ugly looking creature put you in a glass bowl and stared at you all day long.

Consider fresh clean water and water conditioner. They may be panicking from lack of space. They may also be suffering from ammonia poisoning.
