the first couple days they are a little 'on guard" after a couple weeks of being Fed and taken care of they will get used to it.!

Goldfish and turtles have different care requirements and habitat preferences. Goldfish need a tank with clean water and a filter, while turtles need a tank with both water and a dry area for basking. Goldfish prefer cooler water temperatures, while turtles need a warmer environment. Additionally, goldfish are primarily herbivores, while turtles are omnivores and require a varied diet.
Goldfish can get very large; over 20 inches long, but this is not the norm. I would expect that most goldfish would get to about 10-12 inches if provided with a suitable habitat.
Other fish and sea creatures that feed on them.
a goldfish uses his/her fins for direction when it swims.
Usually when they are about 2-3 years old. Goldfish can also die if you don't feed them enough, or too much. When goldfish are not kept in a clean habitat, they can get sick and die. Make sure to clean your goldfish tank at least once a week. Remember, goldfish mainly die from aging
Yes, perch can eat goldfish if they are small enough to fit into their mouths. Perch are predatory fish and will consume a variety of smaller fish, including goldfish, when they are present in the same habitat. However, whether they will do so depends on factors like the size of the perch, the size of the goldfish, and the availability of other food sources in the pond.
You can use clean tap water for your goldfish, but not dirty or used water.
It is both. The plural form is the same as the singular. This is generally true of the word 'fish' on its own or used as a suffix. I don't think 'fishes' as a plural is incorrect, but it isn't commonly used.
No, African cichlids and goldfish should not be kept together in the same tank because they have different water temperature and habitat requirements. Mixing them can lead to stress, aggression, and potential health issues for both species.
Spring time is the breeding season for goldfish. During this time female goldfish will put on weight, and male goldfish will develop breeding tubercles (white dots on the head and gills). Goldfish may chase each other around the habitat in an effort to find a mate. When a male and female goldfish choose a mate the female will release her eggs onto the breeding ground (such as an aquatic plant, or breeding mop). The male goldfish will then release a cloud of Milt (sperm). The milt thus fertilizes the eggs, and goldfish fry begin to form within the eggs. The goldfish eggs will continue to develop for several days until they eventually hatch into fry. The fry will then grow into fully developed goldfish overtime. These goldfish will eventually reproduce, and thus continue the life cycle.
Turtles prefer aquatic habitats with access to both water and land, while goldfish thrive in freshwater aquariums. Turtles require a basking area and UV lighting for proper shell health, while goldfish need a well-filtered tank and consistent water temperature. Turtles also need a varied diet including insects and vegetables, while goldfish primarily eat fish flakes or pellets. Both pets require regular cleaning and maintenance of their habitat to ensure their health and well-being.
