I have a 29 gal with a comet in it right now. It's my dads until he gets another tank to put it in. How long have you had yours?

I've got fat head minnows until my pikes catch up with them. I have some breeding in one of our ponds too. Cool little fish.
I think it's shubunkin goldfish.

i just got my goldfish at the beginning of summer. two of them i got "included" with the tanks, which i got used off ebay. then i got my third one not too long afterwards (it was the last goldfish swimming all alone in a tank at the petstore. they had sold the rest except for this one, and i felt bad for it. it's even a cute little one! i don't know why nobody bought it...)

I've never been a big fan of goldfish although I have seen some nice goldfish tanks. Its just that they produce so much waste, hence more tank cleanings and water changes. My personal experiences with goldfish are limeted almost entirely to keeping feeders for the pair of gar I used to have. I'm not totally coldhearted however; See rivergold.net/fish/molly.html

Hello, I have a 35 gallon long tank housing a beautiful round red ryukin goldfish (2 years old, 9 inches), a calico pearlscale goldfish(about 5 inches) and a calico telescope-eye goldfish(about 6 inches). Anyway, I just wanted to say that goldfish are most beautiful when kept in non-crowded conditions because then they will grow to their fullest and be and look their healthiest, plus cleaning-up will be easier!
