From what i have gathered, you have 2 10gallon tanks, one with a goldfish and the other platys and you have a crayfish in a 1gallon- can you tell me exactly though wether this info is correct and what types of fish and how many do you currently have in your tropical 10gallon? Do your tanks all have filters in them?

 

[william11373]

yea they have filters, right now my other 10 gallons has nothing in it but a couple cool rocks i collected. i wanan get fish that wont die easily

 

[GSD]

ok,you have an unsuitable tank for the goldfish you need to sort them out BEFORE you get any more fish.people are giving you advice and you are just egnoring it!

 

[william11373]

yea but those are only feeder fish

 

[Jen]

What will you be feeding them too?

If the 10gallon tank is totally empty, first you need to do a fishless cycle in it before you put any fish in it so the good bacteria which breaks down fish waste can grow in the filter and cope with the fish's waste load, otherwise the fish poo which creates ammonia will just build up and kill them. You can find out how to do a fishless cycle in the pinned articles in the beginners section.
A 10gallon is too small for danios, but 4 or so platys which are quite hardy fish can live in there, be warned though these fish create alot of fry(baby fish) on a monthly basis so having a mixed gender group or all female group can be a problem(females can store sperm in them so can get pregnant even without a male present). Albino/bronze corys are hardy fish or a 2 female mollys would be good. Before any fish though you need to do a fishless cycle in the tank.
You need to find out what type of goldfish you have as many grow massive and will outgrow a 10gallon tank, 1gallon tank is too small for the majority of crayfish to grow up in.

 

[william11373]

no , all crayfish do is hide behind a rock all day,and once i toss a fish in the tank it chases it then eats it and goes back to sleep

 

[GSD]

tokis has made a good post on how to set up the tank but you need the tank for the stuff you already got
those fish arnt JUST feeder fish they deserve to live in good conditions
how many you got in the 10gallon
you need the 10gal to put some of the goldfih in and the crayfish will need a bigger tank too

 

[william11373]

how big a platy can grow up to and what happens when it lay babies, and what it eats

 

[william11373]

this fish business is tough
