Thanks! 4 Y" N" {( {* T7 b& h4 \- mWhat fish should I add to my existing goldfish? " l* G% ^$ k1 q3 f5 W1 YI 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. * `! D) F9 L3 m5 JDo you have any suggestions?
