It hasn't gotten here yet. When I was little we had a 40 gallon tank full of all kinds of fish but my mom was mainly in charge of that. I had carnival goldfish in little bowls later on, which my mom hated... and I know now why!
Anyway, I got a 4-gallon tank with a light and filter. I don't really want to get involved with the heater deal, so I am pretty much sticking to standard, hardy, goldfish. At least for now.
How many can be happy in a tank that small, just one or two? Are they school fish? I'm assuming not, anyway, I am happy either way.
I got a BiOrb from Petsmart, it hasn't gotten here yet.
Having never experienced cats and fish, what do I need to know? I can't really keep the aquarium too high off the ground, though I do have a very sturdy table for it.
What food is good for regular old goldfish? They're omnivores, right? Do you really need real plants? What kind, elodea? Snails?
