What fish should I add to my existing goldfish?1 w& c- J: l4 {- _5 B
I did not plan to have the least-expensive goldfish in my tank, but for the purpose of testing my water, I bought 5 of them. They have been doing very well. I do not think it ok to throw them away live. Then when I add fish, I have to consider what fish can live along with them. 2 S2 n+ W- E& }+ T* h! e$ r% Q
Do you have any suggestions?
