Rachel Snow Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 There doesn't seem to be a lot of goldfish love around, so would love to see some appreciation in this post. I know a lot of people don't like them but I can't help but enjoy how they look. Would love to see some of your set ups and best looking goldfish Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldenswimmers Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I could bombard the thread with the goldies Ive had but its easier to go into the goldfish section(or my profile albums) and have a browse....heres a good starter http://www.qldaf.com/forums/goldfish-koi-46/dedicated-area-show-off-your-goldfish-koi-pictures-60733/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Snow Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 hope you enjoy them , and i hope to see a post of your lovley goldies..! Well I'm yet to have any. I currently have a 3ft mixed African cichlid tank but hopefully all the fish will be gone by the weekend. I've been so suprised that there isn't a huge at home goldfish breeding community like there is for cichlids! Can anyone recommend the best top quality places to buy Goldie's from? Was thinking about checking about Aquarama at Stafford.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAJC2012 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Are goldfish hard to breed? I always thought they were, yet a mate of mine who knows nothing about fish keeps having to get rid of them out of his pond because they breed so much!!!

Donny@ageofaquariums Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 They aint hard to breed....... but you need space to raise them up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJplusMilo21 Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Hi I have a bath tub with 7 gold fish not big ones can I add brissle nose cat fish to this tub without them being eaten. From my experience (Goldfish and Otocinclus Catfish) it is not a good idea to keep catfish (plecos) with Goldfish. This is because catfish can turn on goldfish and start sucking the natural slime that covers the Goldfish body.

tanzee Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Thanks for the advise will wait till I can sell my Venesus fish they would eat any new fish I add to the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
