    Seems like you overfed them. Goldfishes are generally very greedy. They can eat all day long so long as there are food. Are you feeding them with pellets? Starve them for a day or 2. Then feed them once a day about 4 to 5 pellets for each fish. They need alot of oxygen or aeration. I can see that you have airstones but your overhead filtration seems a little too strong.

    It seems to me there's air in the bowels or some other part which can't be expelled? The fish is trying hard to swim upright, but couldn't. Time to go to the vet.
    LIFE IS UNBEARABLE WITHOUT A FISH TANK!!!
