Disabled goldfish gets around with the underwater equivalent of a wheelchair
YouTube user synirr had one goldfish who just couldn't maintain her buoyancy. So she outfitted the fish with a special buoyant sling that let Goldie swim around her tank, paddling about with her front fins.
However, even with the sling, competition for food was still an issue, and so synirr would feed her sling-bound fish by hand:
Some of the commenters over at Mental Floss have speculated that the fish's woes might be caused by a bladder problem, and that she might need some more green veggies in her diet.

My disabled goldfish scooting around in her newly redesigned sling. She has trouble maintaining buoyancy on her own. She looks a little silly, but it is better than lying at the bottom of the tank all day!
