New tank for pond fish - Aquarium Advice

Pearlgirl · 10-25-2005, 03:51 AM

It is getting rather cold here and I have a few fish I need to bring is before winter. I have a 29 Gallon fresh water tank and 3 goldfish and one feeder fish left of the 12 I put in. How many fish can I safely add and should I stay with the goldfish.

you feed your goldfish live feeders?
ultimatly 29gal id say is to small for goldies. depends, how big are they?
if they're only small they'll be fine temporarily, but if they are above 7 or 8" i'd recommend bigger.

I agree. How large are the goldies? 4 might be able to make it in the tank if they are small.
