Thanks! 6 H1 e }& e+ k' S3 r8 A {* nWhat fish should I add to my existing goldfish? + N8 Y8 U& Q( o6 KI 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. + ^& `6 F* ?7 t, W
Do you have any suggestions?
