Blackcat13 Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Mum got me a small plastic tank ( for safety) which is Approximately 41cm Long, 28cm Wide and 30cm Deep, it has a filter/pump and a few plants. Can you advise how many gold fish are ok in this size. Would like one blackmoor (one black one is good luck) a gold fish and a few mountain minnows if able to. Appreciate any advice , mum will make sure I dont put too many in. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Hi and welcome blackcat. A tank that size is really too small for goldfish as they grow big. They would be OK for a wee while but would then need a bigger home. Mountain minnows would be good in there though. Would you be happy with just a school of them? Otherwise, one blackmoor would be ok for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 We had 18mm here today but the day ended nice and sunny. Aren't you up a bit late for a 5 year old - even if it is school holidays? :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawn Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Hi Blackcat, when you wake up tomorrow you can have a look at the picture of my small tank, probably smaller than yours. I have two small goldfish in it but I think their growth is stunted because they don't seem to be getting any bigger. I hope you enjoy your fish tank and that your fish are very happy with you.
