Goldfish Care – Types of Goldfish Diseases

Goldfish are susceptible to diseases and here I will discuss the different types of goldfish diseases that fish can develop. Goldfish usually develop diseases or sickness largely due to lack of maintenance on the aquarium. They sometimes can develop them due to injury they suffered by scraping off the protective slime coating that goldfish have on their skin.

Here are the different types of goldfish diseases and illness.

1. White spot disease or ich (Ichtyopthirius)
2. Velvet disease
3. Anchor Worm
4. Argulus
5. Fin and Tail Rot
6. Ulcers
7. Cloudy Eye
8. Mouth Rot
9. KHV Virus

Next I will talk about each individual disease and how to properly cure them step by step. Proper goldfish care and action is essential in getting these goldfish back to health and getting the goldfish disease under control.

There are holes in his head where his eyes were!!!! I dont know how to explain it!!!! Please write me back at Marki696@charter.net thanx!!!!

Hi there,

Yes I’ve heard of the goldfish disease eye cloud as you call it, also known as Cloudy Eye which sometimes affect goldfish.

I’m sorry to hear about your goldfish. It’s probably one that you really liked too. I can’t beleive his eyes came off, that’s sad.

I guess the bacterial infection could possibly have basically killed or destroyed the eye itself. That’s a possibility or another goldfish could have been picking on your goldfish.

I am going to write a post on Cloudy Eye Goldfish disease so everyone can learn more. I will also email you as well to make sure your goldfish will be okay.
