Thanks! - H/ c% y4 B7 e; {What fish should I add to my existing goldfish?/ _3 U. s& f' X, Z! C) [8 M
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. + f* ~2 x! h$ N* P0 oDo you have any suggestions?
