I recently seemed to have fallen prey to a misdiagnosis regarding one of my fancytails, thinking it had Ich, but now beginning to believe as it was suggested to me that it may in fact be signs of a growth spurt -- and so I have temporarily abandoned the heat treatment, instead bringing the temperature down a bit each day.
According to my Top Fin thermometer, the temperature of the water has seemed to stabilize in the green "safe zone" as indicated on the thermometer, but isn't this area specifically for tropicals? What would be the ideal temperature to keep my water at for the fancytail goldfish? I realize these are classified as "coldwater" but that doesn't mean they should be subjected to a frozen tundra...
