Well that is debatable, I have found in owning both kinds of fish that betta fish are a much better match for a novice fish hobbyist: they do not require much maintenance to stay healthy, they don't require a lot of space to thrive, they hardly ever get sick, they are inexpensive, and are very,very beautiful fish. However goldfish I find act more like a dog or cat; they are very personable fish: they recognize their owners and beg for food, they come in many, many different varieties and colors(much like dogs) they grow quite large (up to a foot in length) and can bring you much pride when showing them off to friends and family, goldfish can live up to 20+years, there are goldfish clubs you can join and you can even enter your goldfish in shows. What I'm trying to say is that both fish have pros and cons. If you are new to fishkeeping than you'll want to definetly go with the betta fish, if you have a lot of experience in fishkeeping you'd probally be better off with the goldfish. Betta fish are for beginners, goldfish are for the intermediate hobbyists.
