One thing I hate is how these guys put massive reefs in the salt water tanks with 4 or 5 fish and they can only swim side to side and it's ok? Somebody say to me If I need a 50 gallon tank for one featherfin catfish? But a nice and open tank with a bunch of gold fish swimming freely is a sin? I love the diversity in the different breeds. Beautiful tank. Does the salt in the water really help out that much? I just have a little cloud that stays constant. Nothing serious tho. Just not (Crystal)
Because they are fresh water fish, its just plain tap water with a little bit of salt and great filtration.
I also use a product called Geo Liquid which clouds the water at first, but then breaks down and bacteria/germs etc in the water and helps keep the PH levels correct. After it clears, the water is crystal clear.
@TheynnaJ I can tell you now, that there were not unhappy!! If you read thru the other comments, its a 6foot tank. they had plenty of fresh clean water, great filtration etc and were well cared for. Im not a fan of any fish store that packs their tanks to the brim full of fish and wouldnt do it myself because its cruel
@kylies001 yes, but the pet stores have a high turnaround on their fish and they because of the quantity of fish they sell, they really can't keep a small amount of fish in a tank.
@19allden19 4-5 Fancy goldfish would need about a 60 gallon tank minimum (20 for the first and 10 for each after that). 4-5 Common, comet, or shubunkin goldfish would need a 120 gallon tank minimum (40 for the first and 20 for each additional fish). Of course, length & width are more important than depth since fish need space to swim and grow and more surface area=more air exchange. Remember, only add one fish at the beginning because you tank is cycling, and then gradually introduce more fish.
@nghtmrb4xmas14 Its a little over a 6 foot tank, which is kept cleaner than my house!! lol. They are all happy, healthy fish living in very clean water. Its no way near stocked to where I was told by my supplier as to where it could go. It all comes down to filtration and the water.
They were only hanging in a group because they thought it was feeding time. but thanks for your comments tho :)
nice looking tank, too many fish though. its overstocked. dont worry about the turbulence form the filter outlets/bubbles, mine has a lot of movement too as its such a large tank (6x2x2) and my fancies do just fine in there, they even play in the filter flow.
do u reaslise the goldfish are finding it difficult to swim because of the excessive turbulence created by your 'bubble wall' ?
This effort is exhausting them and it can impact their health in the long run. twintail varieties are not bred to swim fast, u know. and u even have a bubble eye swimming in this storm of water current. please think it over. i have nothing but the health of ur fish in mind as i write this. have some compassion on ur pets.
Im able to keep the amonnia level low by taking about 25% of the water out every two weeks and using geo liquid with the water change. All of them are still going strong!!
oh ok. what about keeping your water so clear. this is for my sister to get some advice cuz she has 6 goldfish in a 55 gallon tank and well it gets dirty fast.
The geo liquid is the saver here. Its comes in a red bottle. It will make the water cloudy for a day or two, but after that it is so clear it looks like there is no water in the tank at all. Plus it has all the right nutrient's in it that the water needs to keep the fish healthy. Plus a good filter will help. Goldies a dirty lil suckers!
@jquick09 Do 25 -30 percent water changes and vacuume the gravel at least once a week. I do partial water changes at least once a week and my 40 gal is crystal clear. I only have 3 goldfish in it though.
Its a 6 foot tank with about 25 or so goldies in there. I have a great canister filter and I do weekly water checks and exchange water once a week. I couldnt fit the whole tank length in the view finder of the camera, you can only see about 30cm of the tank in that shot. Ive been told that the water quality in my tank is great and I could fit about another 10 in there but I dont think I will. Thanks for your comments :D

It reminds me of the goldfish they have in pet stores where they pack a ton in a tiny tank because it's only temporary.

Goldfish look nice in more bare tanks and they love attention so they don't really need "hiding" places like plants or decorations.
