While Bubbles could be pregnant, most gold fish will not breed within a normal tank setting. Some goldfish will breed in a very very large tank or a pond but even then, they often won't. At this point, I would not change anything about the tank or Bubble's living space. If you do happen to see baby goldfish, then you can either start a nursery tank (I would recommend to get a book about goldfish breeding prior to setting one up) or put in lots of plants, rocks and other items which will offer hiding spaces for the babies. The baby fish will eat the normal fish food. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach!
