Goldfish should be fine with other non-agressive coldwater fish. Be wary of fin-nippers as well, especially if your goldfish are the longer-tailed varieties. If you have fancy goldfish, especially the types like telescope eyes with poor vision, be sure your other fish are not so much faster than your fancy that it can't get to the food before it's all gone. Goldfish do not mix well with tropicals as the temperature requirements are too different.
no goldfish and tropical fish cannot live together. gold fish are cold water fish and tropical fish are tropical fish. also only 2 goldfish can go in a 30 gallon, because goldfish make a lot of waste.
Most! Maybe if you go to a pet shop and ask but mostly all fish can live with a goldfish in a tank
Coldwater fish go with Goldfish (temperature under 70F). Tropical fish go with Bettas (temperature over 70F). Just make sure that you don't put any more than one Betta in a tank. So Bettas and tropicals don't go with Goldfish and vice versa.
you would have to get a 10 gallon tank for 1 goldfish! you would need a 20 gallon tank for 2 goldfish. Also goldfish don't go well together there just being stored at the store they take the fish out right when they start to be aggressive. sorry bout your 2 gallon tank!!
The best thing to do is ask the shopkeeper in the fish shop and find out first but goldfish go together with no problems if you are lucky because some goldfish can't live together. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldfish
If it is goldfish: 7 can fit. if it is mos other fish (besides koi) you can fit 14
The reason they swim around in circles is because they have a sense that makes them go around in circles because common goldfish cant really go straight
Healthy goldfish will always be hungry and eager for food.Yes all fish will stop eating when they have had enough. It is impossible to overfeed goldfish because they do not over eat. It is not hard to put too much food in their tank or pond because they do not eat very much. If you do this the fish will not eat it all so the left over food will go rotten and poison the water.
they don't. i have my gold fish in a glow fish tank with a blue LED light and he acts just fine. ;) Light has no effect on a Goldfish's behavior other than the fact that a goldfish will usually go to sleep when the lights are turned off.
yes my goldfish and guppies go fine together
No, betta fish are tropical fish; goldfish are coldwater fish, this should be reason enough not to mix the two. The mixing of these fish would be irresponsible and could yield distatorous results. One reason not to mix them would be because betta fish are quite small; most don't even reach 1/3 the size of a goldfish (even when full grown!) it makes them very likely to get bullied by the other fish. Fin nipping can be a major problem and is dangerous for the health of the fish. Do all your fish a favor by not mix betta fish with goldfish.
If one goldfish is always chasing another goldfish, and the goldfish being chased has ripped or torn fins, they are probably fighting. Remove the aggresive fish and put it in another tank or fish bowl. If you are ever in Chelmsford, MA, go to Fins&Feathers Pet Store. They are the best, and they have the healthiest pets. Just tell them Erin sent you.
