How many liters of water does a 5 feet by 2feet by 2 feet fish tank hold?

What will happen if you keep touching a goldfish?
It is okay to touch your goldfish to inspect for disease, or to check them for overall wellness. I do this occasionally with my fish. Be sure to be very gentle, and make sure your hands are wet with aquarium water so you do not disrupt their slime coat.
Do whatever you have to do quickly, and then put them back in the water.
I don't recommend taking them out and petting them. Handling them unnecessarily might cause them undue stress.
What does it mean when your goldfish is at the bottom of the tank?
If is not moving and has not been moving for more than several minutes - he is probably dead. But if he is alive and just hanging around down there, it just means he wants to. Goldfish are naturally bottom feeders and so eat whatever "stuff" they find at the bottom of their living space.
If a goldfish is blind will it breed?
No. A goldfish is not colour blind and can see all colours.

What is Fish tank 3 stage filtration?
There are so very many to choose from that it is impossible to compare them all. I would advise you to go for an external power filter that has several types of media that can be cleaned at different times without damageing the Bacterial content of the media too much. I do have one warning though. Never ever use an "Undergravel Filter" they are likely to release deadly toxins into your tank if you ever have a power blackout and kill all your fish.

It is possible to hatch and rear the fry without the aid of the parents. It involves the use of Methylyne Blue and air bubbles and is quite a complicated procedure. My advice is for you to let the parents do the job.
Why do goldfish huddle together?
If your goldfish are huddled together, there are a few explanations. One, the tank may be cold. The goldfish will huddle together to keep warm. Two, the tank may be too small. The goldfish will naturally migrate to the corners to try to spread out. Other than that, I'm not really sure. I would investigate these explanations first, before searching for others.
i have three fantail goldfish myself they always swim together i think the reason they huddle is because in the pet store the fish lived in a much smaller tank with many other fish it looked like they lived like that for awhile
What does it mean if your goldfish have red lines?
Typically red lines are blood streaks (normally first spotted in the fins) caused by stress.
Check your water quality for ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates, they should be 0, 0, and less than 10 respectively; if they are not, do an immediate 75% water change in your tank making sure that the new water is the same temperature as the old water, and that you add in the recommended dosage of water conditioner per the directions on the bottle.
In addition, add in the dosage of Aquarium salt per the directions on the packaging for reducing stress.

Koi.
As a member of the carp family, this is a highly prized fish in many Asian countries.

The trick to removing this flavour is to 'purge' the fish in fresh clean water for a week before eating.

How long can a starfish survive out of water?
Starfish can survive out of water for 5 days. Then, they die of dehydration. The only way a starfish gets on land is either by humans, or by the ocean itself. Starfish do manage to get back in the ocean, once the tide comes in. Sadly, many starfish don't make it, due to humans taking the little creatures home. Hope this helps! ............................................................If you dont want the starfish to die think of taking a bowl and scoop salt water out of the ocean into the bowl and put the starfish in it so it wont die.
That's really hard to say for sure; I would think they might like at least one goldfish friend, but this means that you need to have at least a 30 gallon tank.
How long is a goldfish pregnancy?
Goldfish do not have a gestation period because the reproduction of goldfish does not, at any point, involve pregnancy. Goldfish lay their unfertilized eggs which are then fertilized by nearby male goldfish. The fertilized eggs then develop and hatch into fry which then grow into baby fish.
Goldfish do not BECOME pregnant. They lay eggs and the male goldfish fertilizes them
How do you treat finrot in goldfish at no cost?
Test your water and make sure that your ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites are at proper levels. If they are not, change 20% of your water no more often than every 2 days. Make sure to test your water before you change it again, in case you don't need to.
Once you are sure your water is at proper quality, treat with antibiotics you can buy at the pet store. Make sure to keep your water quality and filtration is in tip top shape, because fin rot usually is caused by substandard water.
