It is very large underneath (looks as if it is full of spawn). All other fish in pond ok.

Really sounds like swim bladder disease, basically the boyancy of the fish ( inflates when the fish wants to float, and deflates when sinking) is all messed up, bloating and redness are early signs. You should watch the fish to see if it floats right back to the top as soon as it swims away from the net, if this occurs, it's swim bladder. I would suggest to put some garden peas in the water for the fish to much on, or some quick EPSON salt dips. Google EPSON salt dips first. Good luck.

It sounds like swim bladder infection. They have a sac inside that helps them adjust their buoyancy. Sometimes they get an infection in it, and they swell up and swim upside down. I would ask at a pet store what to do. I imagine they have products for that.

It means its constipated. You have to isolate the fish, give it a pea to eat and put a little salt in the water

you need someone help doing so, and try to put each fish in specific place, if they re small , you can put them together but try to give each fish each space , even if in coupling them, u need space for two. gud luck, it s not easy task, but u should work on it.
