Just A Couple Of My Fish

That's a nice and sturdy looking goldfish in the first pic, has it always been that colour or is it slowly changing white? Mine went through a phase like that from completely orange to completely white.

Are the goldfish in with the guppies and such? :unsure:

yes they are but they dont even bother with the tropicals they dont chase them if anythink they swim with them which i thought was rather sweet :blush:
 
Tropical fish need to be kept in tropical conditions, i recommend either re-homing some or buying another tank and heating it :)
 
You have coldwater fish mixed with tropical fish.

You need to remove the goldfish and make a tropical tank or remove the tropicals and keep the goldfish...

Either way one or more of those species is being kept in innapropriate conditions, I wont say anymore in this topic.

i dont need 2 do anythink my friend there all happy living in a TROPICAL HEATED TANK so y fix somethink thats not broken :)



im not a novice 2 keeping fish i have had tank for the past 15 years lol just thought i'd checkout some forums but ....... lol
 
Been down that road before, just be prepared for the goldfish attempting (and usually succeeding) to eat all the smaller fish in the tank. They may have not gone near the smaller fish all their lives, but they will eventually it's just a matter of time IME, and after they start there's not stopping them.

Goldfish can live in tropical temperatures fine IME, but it increases their metabolism considerably meaning they will need a much larger volume of water (75gals should be enough if you don't have any other big fish in there, and smaller fish will be eaten anyway, so you may as well remove the heater and just keep the goldfish). You will need a oversized external filter too though, these fish can easily reach a foot long and produce a lot of waste.
 
i totally argree with ya there and if they do start 2 even eat my other fish then i will imeadiately move them at he moment there in a 78 gallonish tank so they should be fine just nice 2 see some 1 that is not giving grief about keeping them wit tropical fish lol :)
