Answer
Usually, when goldfish get older, their sacs begin to change colors. You should see color changes in the body as well. He should shift from an orange color to a dull bronze color. Its usually completely normal.

If you are still worried, you could go and buy two medications. They are called melafix and pimafix They, combined, are the BEST remedy for most sicknesses and illneses. Here is a link:
