fantail fish

My new fantail fish. I have had it less than a week. I had two but one sorta died. Hopefully this one survives. I really like it.

No air!!

No filter!!!

Stupid bowl!!

Stupid shop assistant!!

They would say ANYTHING to make money, remember that...THEY SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR!

@braska19 Sorry for taking so long to respond, I am totally aware that employees want to sell you stuff. My only question is why tell me a really small cheap simply fish bowl is perfect instead of a much larger more expensive tank with a pump and all kinds of stuff ? He very well could have been uninformed but if he was telling me it to make me spend money he failed horribly.

Hey ... What can I do if i have same fish like u ... But i know that this fish will be 6 inch. long. What can I for stop growing her? I want my goldfish like 2" max. Can i od something?

@Sakkaes27 From what I have read gold fish grow depending on how big their enclosure is. If you put them in a small pond they can grow to like a foot. But you should probably just research and buy a fish that will stay the size you want normally instead of trying to stunt its growth.

that thing is too small

but is that thing in the middle a giant poop?? OMG lol

and your fish is so cutee!

@Gaby3898 It is actually a little Buddha statue that I bought at the flea market. =0

Since there's no airs and filter, you need to change the water pretty often. Otherwise, the fish will become stress and eventually sick.

1 it's a red cap oranda

2 you cant keep him/her in a bowl

IT WILL DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very pretty fish.... A Ryukin, i believe... He will be fine in that tank, but it is easier on the fish to have all the luxuries that everyone else is mentioning... I have 18 fish 15 of which are in the goldfish family and no aerorator, just a phosphate and carbon filter combo, 4 plants and they are doing great!!!

[visualkeirockstar]

At leaste some plants to take up the nutrients inthe water

I actually had 2 goldfish in a bowl no tank, no filter, no aerator, clean water every day and they lived for almost 3 years.and one only died because my cat ate one!

This is animal cruelty.

[mikeydude319]

@Sakkaes27 are you insane!!!!! there is no way to stop them from growing unless tou put them in a bowl like the video above!!! but if u do that and the goldfish don't grow they will be unhappy and most likely explode because the fish doesn't grow but on the inside no matter what the organs grow. so if u want your fish to explode fine by me but if now get it a 20 gallon tank with a filter and air pump and maybe u could fit 2 but monthly water changes with a gravel vacuum and they should GROW

[HamsterDude8]

Ok tank but it should have a filter. Fantail goldfish dont seem to get very big but orandas do, so make sure it is not an oranda

[petluv6646]

the goldfish needs a 20 gallon tank alone without any friends and since they do like friends and are social u might wantto add another goldfish which means another 10 gallons so you might need to do your research but i do like your goldfish i ecpecially like the spot on the dorsal fin

@ninaconDios NO BALLS

THEY ARE BAD FOR FISHS EYESITE AND THEY CANNOT GROW IN THAT SMALL SPACE

[MrXjellyfishXx]

if you feed him flakes how many or like what size is it all put together like a dime size???
