Thanks! # p. C7 u1 L- X+ s/ jWhat fish should I add to my existing goldfish?; _! k3 @! s# ]. q+ F
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. 4 Q9 ^: r' J1 {5 }0 WDo you have any suggestions?
