Do goldfish breed in tanks Im going to have 5 goldfish and I do not want a tank full of fry I will have 1 pearl scale 1 oranda 1 fantail 2 telescope eyes

You won't have a tank full of fry, I can promise you that. They may spawn in a tank, but even if the eggs hatch, the fish would soon eat any fry.

I hope you have a large enough tank and a decent filter for them, as goldies grow very large and are very messy eaters

Are you blanching them, removing the outer 'shell' and squishing them slightly? That's the only way mine would eat them.

i dont squish them but i take the shell off

They might not like them. And there isn't really any need to feed them peas - they're good for constipation though. Some of mine used to like a bit of blanched lettuce. There's not much nutritional value in it but they seemed to enjoy pecking at it.

You can upload pictures to sites like photobucket and then copy the link to them into your post.
