How many goldfish do you think I could fit in a 50l tank? And also-

Calling fellow fish-lovers!I have a little dilemma on my hands here. I got a tropical fish tank thats 50L and I dont think I was ready for them- or an infection is in the tank- because they keep dying. Who thinks i should drain all the water out (when they die), clean everything and start again but with coldwater goldfish (because they look cool and are much hardier)? Any replies would be very, very helpful.

You can fit maybe one fancy goldfish in a tank that size- you'd probally be better off with a different fish though.If you're going to start over then you'll need to starilize the 50l tank first before adding any more fish (add bleach, then rinse out, wait a few days, then rinse, again, after rinsing several times fill the tank up with water then use dechlorinater, do water test. Also throw out any filters, gravel/sand, decorations, rock, plants, etc. because these can recontaminate your tank.

also- goldfish are not as hardy as you think.

Its often very hard to get a goldfish which is not diseased from a petstore- which means you'll probally end up having it die on you, if you want a hardy fish then get a beginner fish instead. :)

y would u yes goldfish r easier to keep but r very boring and lazy and dirty  tropical fish r nicer i have a 40 and 72 gallon full of plants and teras ..... stick with the tropical better fish overall i had goldfish and i give them to my red belly pirahna goldfish SUCK

the reason they kept dying in their was because of a parasite.And im guessing that you shoulnt put in any fish in theyre until its completely clean and ready.=)

[bryan32333]
