Goldfish are coldwater fish and need their water about 55F. Angelfish are tropical fish and need their water about 80F so they could not live for long under the same conditions. If you wished to keep both species then you would need two tanks set up in totally different ways. The minimum sized tank to house one of either of the species is about 12 gallons. For two Goldfish or two Angelfish you would need at least a 30 US Gallon tank because they grow quite large. Aquarium prices vary depending upon who you buy one off. They are often seen at Garage sales and are also advertised second hand in the "for sale, classifieds" section of newspapers.

some fish tanks are big and some are small,so around $15 to $30 for medium small tanks and around $60 to about $150. again it matters on what size the fish tank is and how big your fish are.

What do you mean "goldfish tank"? This is what I think. I single ADULT goldfish needs 15 gallons with another 5-10 gallos for additional goldish. I keep my baby goldfish in a 5 gallon but when he hits 5", he is movin to a 20 gallon with an adult goldfish to keep him company. Anyway, you can buy a good sized kit from petsmart. I baught my 5 gal for $44.99 and you can buy a 20 gallon kit for just around $91.99! I recomend getting new filters though cuz the ones that come with kits...well. They suck.

GOOD LUCK!

No. A one gallon tank is not appropriate for a singular goldfish much less multiple. A ten gallon tank is the bare minimum for a singular goldfish and breeding would require a tank of twenty gallons or more. A one gallon tank cannot handle the chasing that proceeds goldfish mating nor maintain a water quality that is suitable for raising goldfish fry.

Will goldfish stop eating when they are full?

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.

If your goldfish is about 2 and a half inches long how big does its tank need to be?

Regardless of the type or size of goldfish the minimum acceptable size of an aquarium for a goldfish is 30 gallons. Buy a tank that is at least 30 gallons if you plan to have goldfish. You can comfortably fit 3 goldfish in a tank this size but no goldfish in a tank any smaller. Goldfish are essentially pond fish and need lots of space to swim; they will not thrive in a small aquarium.
