So I've recently found out that a lot of the things I believed about keeping goldfish are wrong, and I've been doing my best to rectify the mistakes I've made. I have brought a new 90 litre tank, filter, and some live plants (it's all cycled and my fish much happier in there than he was before).
I have one comet goldfish who is several years old and around 8cm long. I've been looking around and there seems to be a general consensus that goldfish are social and work best with other goldfish? This would be fine except I don't think my tank is big enough for two goldfish and I really can't afford to get a larger one at the moment.
Would it be better to leave my goldfish alone or to risk putting in another species such as Red Minnows or Zebra Danios?
I would also appreciate any advice regarding natural ornaments as there is a lot of conflicting information on what is appropriate, and I would prefer not to have any plastic or poly-resin in the tank if possible.
