Goldfish are considered a cold-water species and will do best in temperatures between 19-23 C (66.2-73.4 F). You will need to make sure they are well anchored to avoid tipping. The best live plants for goldfish include java fern and anubias. Driftwood is a great start (if only for aesthetic reasons) and live plants are excellent. Goldfish love to taste test and rearrange tank decorations, so whatever you choose, be sure itвЂ™s tough. Sand may be preferable but be aware that your goldfish will disturb it regularly, so be sure your filtration system can handle silt. For this reason, you should avoid any sharp gravel but you may opt for either medium to small rounded gravel or sand. Goldfish are curious feeders and will often sift through the substrate by picking up small rocks or shells. Goldfish are also a popular choice for outdoor ponds. Although pairs are certainly preferable, goldfish can be kept alone, so the tables will begin with a single fish. The below tables represent the required tank sizes for adult goldfish. Longer tanks are better than tall ones, but avoid low boy tanks for goldfish. There should be some water movement and the water should be well oxygenated.

Initially, a 75 litre (20 gallons) will be fine while your pets are still young, but you will eventually need to upgrade to at least 114 litres (30 gallons) tank for the slow swimming fancy varieties and 200 litre (55 gallon) for the more active comets and common varieties. Unsurprisingly, the classic вЂgoldfish bowlвЂ™ is highly unsuitable for the well being of these creatures. Goldfish can grow up to 20cm (8вЂќ) in the fancy varieties and 30cm (12вЂќ) in the elongated common variety. Giant danios are also acceptable, but not for the poor swimming fancy goldfish varieties. You should pair your goldfish only with medium-sized, placid, cold water tankmates such as rosy barb, platys and zebra danio. Other factors you will need to consider is the goldfishвЂ™s tendency to attempt to swallow whatever fits in its mouth and their need for lower temperatures. Fancy varieties can easily become stressed when paired with fast-moving, boisterous fish, and should not be paired with the standard goldfish varieties like the comet and wakin goldfish. Firstly, goldfish (particularly the fancy varieties) are incapable of defending themselves and are highly susceptible to bullying, fin-nipping behaviours. However, finding a suitable tankmate can be quite difficult for several reasons. They are a great community fish that will get along well with their own kind and rarely cause a problem for suitable tankmates. They are known to interact with their owners and have been shown to retain learned behaviours for up to three months. Goldfish are a placid, confident fish and are (despite common belief) actually quite intelligent. They prefer slow-moving freshwater in cooler climates but can tolerate even muddy low oxygen waters. Originally hailing from East Asia, goldfish are now found all over Asia, Europe and North America, where they are considered an invasive pest species. If you treat your fish pet with the same basic care an aquarist would for any other fish, you should enjoy many years of companionship with these stunning and surprisingly intelligent fish. They are a low maintenance fish, but this does of course not mean вЂno maintenanceвЂ™. They are a very hardy fish that can tolerate the kind of mistakes one could expect from a novice, but this hardiness has likely led to the belief that they naturally have very short lifespans, as they may show few signs of stress until conditions become deadly. Usually believed to require only a small bowl and expected to live for a year or two, goldfish are actually very large fish that can live for decades if properly cared for. For simplicityвЂ™s sake, Goldfish may be divided into the вЂstandardвЂ™ and вЂfancyвЂ™ varieties, with both potentially reaching 20-30 cm in length (8-12вЂќ) and living up to 20 years if properly cared for.ДЄlthough they are one of the most popular fish in the aquaristвЂ™s trade, goldfish are sadly often mistreated by those that simply donвЂ™t understand the aquarist hobby.
