I saw this video of a guy who breeds goldfish.all of his fish seemed to have growths on their heads and red spits under the skin

What type of goldfish are the parent goldfish?
In some of his images he is holding an oranda goldfish. Maybe the lump is from a messed up oranda gene.

It doesn't look normal though. There appears to be blood flowing to the swelling on the head. This could be from softer tissue in that area or some weird infection.

We need to know how many fry have it and how long they have it for before they die.

It's not Juicebox's job to film it unless they are her fish.

Tell whoever owns the fish to pop on here and give us some more info and pics

That's also another really good idea. And probably the more "honest" one

Looks painful...
I wonder what it could be.

Maybe salt would help? I don't know though, looks strange

You need to know the genetic makeup of the parents, I think it is a genetic condition from inbreeding, not a disease. Once all the fish that have the genes that cause this die the rest of the fry will be fine.

I don't have sound on the crap computer, what does the video say?

That his fish have been dying at fifty a day and now at 10 a day and he treated his tank with something but has no idea what the "Disease" is.

Melafix or something
