Well you'll be pleased to know he is improving! His top fin is unclamped now, he's swimming around much more, getting used to Chris & I. The regular water changes along with some ammonia remover have helped, although reading the link I think the tank is still cycling, which is a shame as we set...

Oh dear....I wouldn't want them to die early :( perhaps we will have to get a pond or when they get a bit bigger give them to someone with a pond (I had thought I'd read that Blackmoors are not hardy enough for a pond though?). At the moment shaft the "basic" Goldie is quite petite at 3 inches...
