    Golds can live over twenty years. Goldfish won at fairs are usually comets and can get over 12 ikinches long. They are really pond fish or at least 55 gallon fish. But a twnety would do..for now.

    why did my koi die i think my other fish?

    What was the blue fish? Not knowing what you have is one of the prime reason fish die. The owner has no idea of what they have or how to take care of it.

    what kind of small fish can be with small 2in turtles?

    Bad news then. Turtles eat fish. They will try and eat any fish you keep in a tank with them. Plus with turtles, you need a crawl out place for them to get out of the water, even water type turtles. Fish rest..turtles eat fish. see the problem?

    MY BETTA FISH IS GOING PALE!!! HELP!!!?

    There really should be a heater for him. A lamp can raise the temp dangerously high and when the bulb burns out..then what? Also you just got him..give him some time to settle in. But he really needs a temperature around 78-80 degrees F. at all times, not a yo-yoing temperature.

    What kind of fish go good with goldfish?

    Goldfish usually only go good with goldfish. They produce too much waste and need cooler temps them tropicals do. i have heard people putting white cloud minnows in with them, but I haven't done it. do not put any tropicals like platies, mollies, angelfish or any type of cichlids.

    i'm thinking of adding a few more fish o my tank is it over crowding?

    Just know that blue, opiline, golds a dkssng ones can get too large. The kissers especially. I would add a pair of dwarfs and another mollie. Keep you total fish under 6-7 and make to check on the adult size before purchasing. remember..fish grow.

    Do fish tanks have to be cycled?

    The pet store will do it for free. but i question you..if spending money on doing the tank right is too much..then how are you going to stock and take care of any fish? i spent about $10.00 on a kit..you don't have to have a lab to do it.

    Betta Fish Laying Down?

    Bettas sometimes do this. if the water is good, it's heated and steady of temperature, and there are no outward signs of illness, then he is probably okay. Be sure do not overfeed..do you fast one day a week? One thing might be he is constipated a bit. This happens when overfed or fed too much...

    my Siamese fighting fish is chasing other fishes?

    Yes, bettas can be a community fish..sometimes. But they should never be put with golds. Golds produce a large amount of waste and therefore foul the water quickly. Bettas are touchy about bad water, no matter what some people say. it's their ancestors that lived in rice paddies..not the ones...

    I HAVE TO WRITE A BOOK...HELP!?

    It's not a book your writing..it's a novella or a short story. If you really want to write about your friend and her death, that would be a good idea. Write what you know about. You have plenty of time to do so. Start the story with her death, what happened and how it affected you. Since this a...

    Are betta fish suppose to...?

    Yes..this is why you don't put them together and then leave for the day. you can come home to a dead fish. Bettas are aggressive when spawning and not all get it right the first time. Or even the second. You must monitor them so if it gets really rough, you can quickly remove the female and wait...

    why did my 2 fish die?

    Because you didn't know what you were doing. having fish caught in the wild, and putting them in a tank is cruel to begin with. Also,was the tank water matching the qualities of the river water? Like ph..salinity..things like that. How did you mix the saltwater? if it was for fish tanks, the...

    Dividing a ten would be great. Just make sur ethe divider can not be pushed to where one can slide through..they will! Also bettas are great jumpers, so do not fill the tank to the top..I've had that happen three times now! Even with a lid, they managed to jump over the divider and get o the...
