Can moquito fish eat goldfish pellets and tropical flakes?
Mosquito fish are not Goldfish. They are tropical livebearers. They may eat the goldfish food but it is not the right food for them and so will not be good for them.
How long does a goldfish stay with its mother?
Goldfish are not livebearers so they are never truly prenant. After the female goldfish lays her eggs a nearby male will release a cloud of milt and fertilize the eggs. After this if the mother and father goldfish are not removed from the eggs the eggs will be eaten. So in short a goldfish does not and should not stay with its mother.
What should you do if your goldfish is pregnant and you have a small tank?
Goldfish are not livebearers so they are never truly pregnant. If you think your goldfish is pregnant than she is just getting ready to spawn by becoming full of eggs. Unless there is a male goldfish present the eggs will be unfertilized and will not hatch into baby goldfish fry. Your female goldfish will soon lay her eggs, and if no further action is taken, she will then eat them. As for the small tank, I would really recommend moving her into a bigger one.

Do you just leave pregnant goldfish have babies on there own?
Goldfish are not livebearers so they do not become "pregnant" exactly. If you want her to have living young she will have to be around a male goldfish who is showing breeding "tubercules" so he can fertilize the eggs she lays. The eggs will stick to decorations. Goldfish do not care for their young at all- in fact they eat them! So if you want the baby goldfish to survive you will have to move the parents- not the eggs! into a sepperate enclosure. The eggs will soon hatch into fry if in the right water conditions. After the eggs hatch they are now fry. The fry will need to feed on cultered live brine shrimp.
