Hey. I am new, and have been reading. I think I'm ready to ask a question. I have had a 10 gallon aquarium for about 2 years. Unfortunately I was very uninformed and it is stocked with 2 goldfish and a Pleco. I have had no problems until now...My fish are getting too big, and one of the goldfish has been getting sick.
So I am upgrading to a 37 gallon for now. I am not attached to my Pleco and may give him to a pet store; however, I really like my goldfish.
I have three questions:
1. Can you help me with what kind of filtration I will need for these goldfish?
2. Is it not a good idea to put any tropical fish with my goldfish? Prior to reading here I wanted to put some plattys(sp?)?
3. Do you think that I will be able to maintain an 37 gallon aquarium with goldfish for a good amount of time (5 years?).
Thanks for any advice you can give...
