My dad is a fish expert! lol...I think changing the water will work but if it doesn't there are some medications you can put in the water that you can find at pet stores...there is sometimes this skin (scale) disease that can occur on the fish and I think I have heard of something having to do with their eyes...maybe look up your fish's symptoms if it doesn't get better and get the meds.

Change the water 1-2 times a week. I had 3 goldfish die quickly because no one would help me clean it. If the water changes color slightly, you need to change it. It's not healthy for fish to swim in their own poo XD Because they will end up eating it and getting sick.

I believe the water may be an issue. I went and looked on an informational site and it stated that if the water is dirty, and it stays dirty over a period of time, it CAN eventually kill the fish. A year old is VERY young for a goldish, seeing as it is not uncommon for them to live to be 10 years of age. So I suggest cleaning the water VERY SOON, if not immediatly.
Hope this helps! And heres a good website if you need some more help
