Hello I am new to this forum. I have a freshwater tank. It's 50 litres with two goldfish a black moor and a butterfly fish. They have a large filter, and air filter and thermometer in their tank. Please I don't want any nasty comments about the size, I know this tank is far too small for them. The Blackmoor was a rescue fish from a tank he was very sick when I got him I wasn't expecting him to survive but he did He would just lay on the bottom of the tank- he came from a tank where other fish were attacking him. So this tank was just a temporary thing for him. The butterfly fish a friend got it for a gift, So they have been living together for a little while now. They both get along really well.
I do weekly water changes of 50%, my ammonia is 0, nitrite is 0, nitrate is currently 20, and PH 7.6. I regularly test the water and do extra water changes if needed. They are fed a good quality gold fish pellet which I soak before feeding. They are also fed blood worms a couple of times a week, they also occasionally get skinned peas. (which they love). I want to get them a new tank. I have read different things on the internet regarding sizes and things. What size would I need for them? They are large fish. I don't want to rush into buying a tank I want to do it properly. Any advice would be so helpful.
