Thanks! : u0 n6 I7 a* y' r' jWhat fish should I add to my existing goldfish? 4 Y4 F4 y4 J/ V! i* D% p1 y* o* ?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. # j$ N' [# M4 o. h- @# vDo you have any suggestions?
