Yay, Tropicals At Last!

[Blubble37]

so here we are then, after finding out that my minnows were temperate and my unknown was a tropical i have decided that tropical was the way forward at last!

I dont know what to do with my goldies, i will have to pond them.

Excited lol!

Just incase you do, fancy goldfish (the ones with short, round bodies compared to the long bodies of common goldies) dont do well in ponds, they arent natural species and need to be kept in a tank. If you have these, try and get them to someone with a large tank or to your lfs.

If theyre long bodied, then yes they can go in the pond.

But after reading your other thread, you NEED to keep tank and pond filters on otherwise theres no point having one at all!

no fancys, its too cruel to keep them

 

[hanny93]

Too cruel?

Im not following...

 

[Blubble37]

fancy goldfish is a breed that is cruel and harsh on the animal itself, would you like to have to be very fat, have huge bubble eyes and not be able to walk properly?

 

[hanny93]

I wasnt questioning you i just didnt know what you thought was cruel.

I dont actually agree with you but thats just my 2p.
