Text Version

Goldfish are one of many types of fish that will not stop eating if there is food available, regardless of how full they are.  As such, overfeeding domesticated versions of the fish can easily kill them by blocking their intestines.  This isn’t as much of a problem with certain types of wild goldfish, who have less complex intestinal tracts.  In their case, when food is plentiful, they simply produce more waste.
