Rule of thumb is to not mix tropical fish and goldfish.
depends on the kind of fish ;; the fish kept with your goldfish shouldn't not be likely to eat goldfish ;; you can keep female beta fish with other fish just not males becuase they are preditorial
yes i have a guppie and 3 goldfish in the same tank :)
Well, you gotta chose fish that live in the same conditions as the goldfish such as Koi. You could also do some researching and find out too.
never put a male betta in with any other fish, he will kill them. females are much friendlyer than males but if a gold fish starts nipping at her fins remove her . she wil fight back and most likely kill them or injur them badly.
It is not recommended to keep neon tetras with large goldfish. Goldfish are coldwater fish while neon tetras are tropical fish, meaning they have different temperature and water quality requirements. Additionally, goldfish can be aggressive and may try to eat the smaller neons. It's best to keep fish with similar needs together to ensure their well-being.
They get along with goldfish but you'll end up with babies that are part goldfish. I have them in the same pond and that's what happened to me. The main problem with putting Koi with other fish, is sometimes the other fish like to eat Koi.
No, it is generally not safe to keep a betta fish with other fish in the same tank as bettas are known to be aggressive and may attack or harm other fish. It is best to keep bettas in a tank by themselves.
YES!! At least the fry. My Fan Tailed Goldfish LOVED the fact that my daughter's Mollies gave birth... like a swimming vending machine. Separate the birthing mother from the rest of the tank with a breeder(cheap and worth it). When finished with the birthing process (about 12 hrs) remove the mom to the rest of the tank and keep he fry in the breeder until about 1 inch long. Then they are too big to be eaten.
No, a guppy is a livebearing fish, and a goldfish is egg laying.
No, goldfish are best with goldfish with the exception of weather (dojo) loaches, bristlenose plecos, and apple/mystery snails.Although goldfish can survive in warmer water temperatures, they are a "cold water" fish and not a tropical fish.
it depens on what type of gold fish u have ( ordinary or fancy ) The simple answer is no. You can not keep tropical fish and coldwater fish (goldfish) successfully for long. Amongst other things, Goldfish run out of oxygen and tend to stress when kept too hot for too long. The metabolism of Tropicals slows down when the water is too cool and their organs simply shut down and the fish die.Tropical fish and goldfish prefer different temperatures; goldfish like to be at around 70F (room temp), whereas tropicals need more in the 78-84F range, and so putting them together can be problematic in that either the goldfish or the tropicals will be outside their normal temperature range, which can lead to stress and disease.
They all originate from the same roots, but since goldfish that live outside are more used to the cold and other changes, I would say that goldfish that live outside are stronger and more likely to survive.
