Goldfish come in a variety of shapes and colours. See pics here:

Red spots can be two things, colouration OR septicaemia, which is a nasty bacterial infection.

Inactivity can be a sign of water quality issues, Goldfish need well filtered and mature tanks (tanks that have been through the nitrogen cycle), if you have it in a bowl, take it straight back to where you got it from and research fish care.
