also goldfish can lose colour due to lack of light! do you keep em in pond or tank if tank leave the lights on for longer also try feeding boiled mushed carrot

this can be due to fish being treated with hormones proir to sale,lack of vitamins in their diet,no sunlight,poor genetic strain,or poor water quality.If you can give us the water parameters and lighting and diet maybe we can advise.

As the folks have already said, combo of problems. There was a similar post few weeks back in coldwater section.

Live daphnia (fed on algae)are best foods for getting colours back into fish. Vit C is good for colouration but is readily broken down in food(limited shelf life)

When my goldfish turned pink the advice I received was that the temp was too high i.e. up to 26C in the school so I went tropical.
