Uhh ohh Hello ! Well since my last post I have lost three fish :( The first two I bought together (lion head goldfish) - and one of them was already diseased by the looks of it. I lost the first one, then waited a few days and all seemed fine so added another one in (another lion head). I...

Thanks so much - I do appreciate your time :)
