Most golfish will change color as they mature. Add some salt for freshwater aquariums to be on the safe side.

most goldfish go through a color changing phase at 6 months of age. (body size about 1.5-2 inches in diameter) They can go through as many as 7 color changing phases but most will change just once or twice. Because almost all goldfish are born dark brown one color changing phase is common. I wouldn't worry about it unless it is an external growth outside the body.

Nothing is wrong, the fish is just getting older. They don't stay black.

black is not a very stable color in goldfish, they usually change colors, nothing is wrong with your fish
