When they are getting close to breeding you will notice the male will stay quite close to the female until the eggs are laid and he fertilizes them.

During spawning season, male goldfish chase female goldfish and she scatters eggs and they fertilize them. If the fish is bloated looking it could be full of eggs, or it could be constipated, or it could have dropsy. (Dropsy is where the kidneys fail and the body and scales fill with fluid).

goldfish dont get pregnant they lay unvertalised eggs then a male goes up to the eggs and inserts sperm into the eggs

What exactly is an "unvertalised egg"? Do you mean unfertilized? And male fish do not have the ability to "insert" sperm into the eggs, it's lain on top of the eggs for fertilization, not vertalisation.  add a comment

Goldfish cannot be pregnant, she might be filled with eggs; put plants in the tank so she can lay them or she might die.

fish lay eggs they do not get pregnant and give birth. so you really just have to wait and see if you have extra goldfish swimming around.
