I am no sure if this true but it happened to me so I think your fish is pregnant. Anyway this happened to my tropical fish but then it's tropical so.. Good Luck =)
 
i have two small gold fishes and i have had them for about 7 months, i have never had any problems with them but have noticed one looks very bloated and is swimming around very fast, i am worried, is there anything i can do.
also is it possible it is breeding??
 
it could be a couple of things bloat which is over feeding or taking in to much oxygen when feeding, or carrying eggs.
courting, are the two fish chasing one another usually into a plant (or spawning mop)
is there any sign's of little white dots on the gill plates showing signs of maturity if not then you could rule out spawning,
have you tested your water because sometimes bad water conditions can make a fish dart about rubbing and flashing its dorsal fin
try a 25% water change with dechlorinated water if the darting about stops you know it is a water quality issue
hope this helps
