    How much do I need to feed my goldfish?

    Is this normal?

    My goldfish are chasing each other and running into each other very roughly and I don’t know what they are doing. They are in a real sky big tank and the watch levels are normal. I have a few other fish in the tank that don’t behave this way and the goldfish don’t bother them. They aren’t...

    I’m thinking about getting an axolotl have any of you guys had one?

    I have a 55 gallon tank and I’m trying to decide what I want in it. I thought I could put up a divider and have some axolotl on one side and my fish on the other. Is this a good idea? Or should I just not get one and just let my fish have the whole tank? I’m getting mixed tips on the internet...

    My beta fish died sometime today and I’m not sure why

    My beta was never the same after the female beta died. He was so depressed and sad so when he moved in with my goldfish I had never seen him happier. But he started to sleep more and hangout at the bottom of the tank. Maybe it was the temp of the tank? I don’t know. But he lived in there for...

    I didn’t know that at the time when I got them, I’m working on getting 75 gallon. I’ll have to look and see if that’s on the filter.

    Is my tank over crowded?

    How can I tell the filtration capability? Should I move some to the other tank? I have goldfish in there and those fish are small I wouldn’t want them to get eaten.
