Goldfish temperature

What temp should I keep my 7 fancy goldfish, assortment of orandas, telescope eyes, ryukins and ranchu, at? It’s currently 18-19 degrees but is usually 18-21. Is this ok? What is best for them? TIA

65 to 68F Sounds good to me. What is the pH?

All sounds pretty good. Is the tank cycled?

Hello Lilly...

I keep my Goldfish tanks at roughly 68 degrees. These are cool water fish, so you don't need to put a heater in the tank. 20 degrees Celsius would be the UK conversion.
