I have had him for 4 months and he was always a very energetic eater he would always swim to the top when i opened it in anticipation of the food now he just swims lazily around the tank and is not eating his food. He is in a 5 gallon tank and i change 50%-60% of his water every other day and i use Stress Coat+ for his water and feed him Tetra Fin Goldfish Flakes and occasionally Omega One Freeze Dried Blood Worms, and i have a Aqua-Tech filter. Please Help i don't want him to die. (he has not eaten for like 2-3 days)i noticed it last night cleaning his tank all the food was at the bottom covering the rocks
 
Just feed him one type of food and don't change the water so often. Your fish can't like the temperature being different all the time. Also, he's probably a bit stressed, cus' you obviously can't change the water with the fish in. At least, it's not a good idea. If you keep taking him out, then he probably gets annoyed. Good luck and I hope your fish doesn't die.
 
Be sure his water is a good temp. My roommates would like to keep the apt. cold and the water would be too gold for my oranda. I could tell it was too cold because she would start getting pale and just sit in one place
