"The Secrets Of Goldfish Care"," Goldfish need well oxygenated water so you'll want to pick a tank that has a lot of surface area - or area where the water meets the air.
I know a lot of people keep their goldfish in a bowl, but this isn't really a very good environment for a fish and it certainly won't allow for you to expand and add other fish to your collection.
Goldfish, in general are actually pretty messy fish and they can pollute their own water pretty quickly.
Plus they will eat too much and then poop more and their waste in the water will also start to decay.
Doing partial water changes, about 25% of the total water changed out once a month, is a must to keep your goldfish happy and healthy.
You want to look for little white spots that almost look like salt which is a disease called Ichtyopthirius and needs to be treated right away.
Make sure you keep the tank at a constant temperature and that the PH level remains within the preferred range.
Feeding him a varied diet consisting of flake foods, brine shrimp and blood worms will help keep them healthy.
