@RamenFury If it had no color it would be suffering miserably. The fish seems to be well taken are of so why would it have any reason to be unhealthy? Think of it this way.... there is a 95 year old man who does competition skiing in the US. He's healthy, strong, and takes good care of himself. He doesn't have to be in a nursing home.
What a crock of shit. That looks like a 20 Gallon "Tall" tank. there is no way possible, that he was 7-8 inches and 21 years old. First off, You say controlling food and tank size determines fish size. Lemme tell you where you are wrong. Once a fish has reached a certain size and will no longer grow due to its tank being too small, the fish becomes stressed, smothered, and will simply die. Also under feeding the fish will infact keep it skinny, it will also add more stress and kill it faster.
@ollief9 Thanks! You can really control their size by how big the tank is and feeding habits. Over feeding has to be the number one mistake in keeping any aquarium. Also generally speaking the smaller an animal is the less strain it puts on their organs. He was prob about 7-8 inches in this video.
Wow... what a story this 24 year old goldfish is. My goal is for my goldfish to live as long. What is a hydrogen peroxide water treatment? My fish have suffered with fin rot before, didn't really know how to treat it .
@gojo431 Thanks! It was a long crazy ride. For more info on the peroxide treatment check out my other video. And if you attempt this please be very careful and read the description first.

@ollief9 Yeah the tall tank makes it hard to judge his size. Not arguing its just my understanding, but I'm no biologist so I could be wrong..
