Goldfish

Yes, they do. It could take a while and you will have to do frequent water changes. If you don't, his could get fin rot again. I have used Melafix (by API0) and it makes the fins grow back much faster than left on their own.

Yes they do. Your fish may not be eating because it can't see the food if it's floating. Because of black moor's poor eye sight it is hard to see foods that float. Try using sinking pellets. If it continues not to eat your fish may be sick.

No. Only by the protruding vent. You can also tell by white dots near the head, especially at the gill, and pectoral fins.

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.

Yes, unless you want the mother to eat them

A gold fish or a beta fish should be a good starter fish.

If u have been angry or very stressed out lately that's what it is probably from. u should probably see a doctor and get a prescritption just to see if its not too serious! I'm not sure, but, It has happened to me. One on my forehead, then my index finger, now the back of my head......Stress may be a factor, but, I'm heading to the doc tomorrow...

A betta prefers warm water, where gold fish like cold water, also male bettas prefer to be by themselves, also a betta prefers a shallow water where gold fish prefer a deep tank, gold fish need a filter and bettas do not.

Yes, a goldfish can see you; in color for that matter. Goldfish have eyes on the sides of their heads which gives them a blind spot right in front of them. They can see fairly decent close up but not as clear at greater distances.

They can also sense your movements with their 'sixth sense' located in their lateral line. It helps them recognize where predators are approaching from.

That depends on where you are getting it from. A 5 gal tank is pretty small. At a garage sale you could pick one up second hand for cents. Try googling "buy fish tank" in your area and check for sale and wanted adds in the classifieds. I personally wouldn't pay more than $5.00 for one.

It probably has swim bladder disease. Swim bladder disease is when your goldfish is constipated, and the food is just building up in its stomach. This also happens when you do not soak their food and there is still air in the food and its puts air in the goldfishes stomach and therefore makes it float. Allow me to warn you this disease could be fatal for your goldfish if not treated. My goldfish had swim bladder disease, and this is what I did to help-

1: I made to sure there was little to no ammonia in the tank

2: I withheld food for 2-3 days. The last thing you want to do is add more air in there and possibly some of the food will digest and your goldfish will be relieved and you may have to do anything else. (Although I wouldn't count on it, this helped my goldfish but didn't stop the SBD. (Swim bladder disease)

3: This could also be caused because of lack of greens, vegi's, and fruit. Your goldfish can't live on a diet of pellets forever. Offer it greens at least 2 a week, or you can get a little clippy thing and you can put some lettuce in there. (My four goldfish chomp down a big piece of lettuce fast, they really love it. But I wouldn't recommend leaving it in there for more than 2 weeks) Also, give them a small slice of an orange. My goldfish love oranges, and I think that the orange really helped my goldfish. Don't leave the orange in for more than four hours because the citrus can bring up the ammonia.

4: Remember: Ryukin's and Pearlscales are prone to this disease because of their round shapes. (They are also prone to dropsy) Almost anyone that works with goldfish will have to work with this disease at least once- so that's ok! Good luck to you and your goldfish!!

Many many many fish get along with guppies. Guppies are very peaceful live bearing fish. They breed readily in the aquarium and quite prolifically if left unchecked.

Some suggested tank mates are, most kinds of tetras (not all), rasboras, danios, platys, mollies, swordtails, cherry barbs, gold barbs, just to name a few. Look up info online about guppies and most info will list suitable tanks mates.

They need a tank fish food

Air bladders have been used in a number of applications since the invention of synthetc rubber in the 1940's. Most of the applications include bumpers for ships when they dock, as cushions for various industrial applications where a soft impact is required, and as substitutes for springs in cars (early Mercedes 600 models had air cushions/bladders)

contrary to popular belief, most goldfish do not have a stomach!

Fish live in the water, so generally they only need food.

But they get their oxygen from the water through their gills, so they will need the water to have dissolved oxygen at a proper level.

I feed my catfish macaroni, frozen peas should be fine for a catfish. If the fish cant swallow something, generally it cant fit it in its mouth. Plus, they swim in their own feces, vegetables won't harm it.

They don't carry their babies and may be best to separate them as they might be eaten. The eggs are laid, fertalised and eventually they hatch. As eggs they will stick to objects in the tank, Make sure you have some weeds int he tank. it makes it easy to simply pull the weed out of the tank and place it in another for safe hatching!

because there is less oxygen in water meaning they have to be more efficient to get enough oxygen

No fish likes to be in bad water although there are some species that have developed methods of surviving in these bad low Oxygen conditions. The Anabantid family which includes the Betta and the Gouramies have developed a "Labyrinth" which allows them to get oxygen from the air by means of a chamber in their skull are some that can survive in poor water conditions. You should still follow the basic rules of fish keeping if you want to be successfull keeping fish. The rules are. :-1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water changed every week. If you keep to the above rules, and feed the fish good food it/they will stand a chance of living a normal lifespan. If you fail in any of them I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and will have a very short lifespan.

The fish is dying and will die if you don't change its water ASAP. There are some basic rules for keeping all species of fish. They are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. (Goldfish are 10 inch fish) :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. (This turns Ammonia into Nitrate biologically). :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week. (This keeps the Nitrate levels under control). If you keep to all the above rules your fish should do OK. If you don't I can guarantee that your fish will constantly be getting sick and they will have a shortened lifespan.

Deadly fish are fish that can cause death. Examples are the lionfish, scorpionfish, and many of the larger and more aggressive sharks.

It is much too SMALL. 1 goldfish needs a minimum of 10 gallons of water. It must also have a permanently running 'cycled' filter and it must also have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. It is preferable to keep the goldfish in a larger tank so that two or more can be kept, as goldfish are social fish.

A two gallon bowl would be suitable for a single male betta IF and ONLY IF a suitable small filter can be found that does not disturb the surface of the water too much, and a heater can be found that does not present an electrical hazard in such a small tank - 25 watts or less. If no heater is available, you could keep a single paradise fish provided the tank has a filter. I strongly recommend that you don't attempt to keep any fish in a tank smaller than 5 gallons, especially if you are a beginner, because it is so much more difficult to keep the water quality good in such a small volume of water.

the fish it is

i dont really know how 2 answer but i have a goldfish named bozo who has lived 4 six years. he lloks the same as when i got him exept 4 a few tumor looking things ob his head.
