Hi everyone!
We rescued some baby goldfish last week, (who our neighbor left outside to die in little plastic cups filled with water), and are hoping to find them a knowledgeable goldfish owner who can give them a good life.
I thought that we could keep them in a small tank, but after doing some research I realize that it is grossly inadequate - they need a huge tank or, even better, a pond (neither of which we can provide for them).
Out of the 6 fish that we rescued (and desperately tried to treat for the start of Ich and flukes as a precaution), only 2 are left. They seem to be doing pretty well (no clamped fins, great appetite, very active). But, I fear that it is only a matter of time before the tiny tank, and/or our lack of knowledge, kills them too.
Is there any way for us to find them a proper home before it's too late?
Thanks so much for your help!
