What fish should I add to my existing goldfish?! O* n) Q/ _/ E, 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. 1 U& {1 f8 c7 u1 a% r$ o! v
Do you have any suggestions?
