Question
hi Chloe I am so worried about my gold fish they have little black spots and have veiny pink lumps on their head/nose what can i do?

Answer
Hi Sasha,
The pink lumps are probably cysts and there is no cure or treatment for them. If you have a new tank, it may be recovering from ammonia burns or some other water quality problem during cycling. Test your water for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate.

Good luck!
Chloe.
