SOME SIMPLE FACTS
*Goldfish originated in China.
*Goldfish are intelligent and will recognize the person who feeds them. They will show by swimming rapidly back and forth when you are near the tank or splashing.
*Goldfish like to play. (I know they like playing catching.)
*From my experience, my goldfish love cleanliness. You always find their poop behind the stones.
*The average life span of goldfish is about 25 years or more! Some are said to grow till 45 years old! That means if everything goes well, the fish can live with Rey and his future wife.
*Just know my goldfish are 4 years old now because they start to mate when around 3 years.
*'Fry' is the name for baby goldfish.
*You can feed the small fry hard boiled egg yolk! I didn't know that. Great, I like eating egg white anyway.
AND as I read the sites on goldfish, I realised I am quite lucky, or maybe the lucky ones are the fry...
*I should have removed the rotten bad eggs at first, which I didn't. It is said that the fungus will spread to the good eggs and damage them. But luckily they hatched anyway.
*My common sense told me to lower the water level when I saw how much of a struggle it was for the fry to swim upwards to eat their food. And this move actually help to reduce the water pressure for the fry to live healthily.
*I don't have any filter in the tank for the adult ones. Somehow they just lived until now.
*My fish live in a concrete world with no plants but still grow strong anyway.
Now the future for the fry are uncertain. Some will be given away. Hmm, that will be after 1 year when they are recognisable as goldfish. It shudders me whenever I imagine having 400 or more goldfish 1 year later. Should I let the hatching process go smoothly, or simply let the adult fish have their eggs for lunch and dinner? what to do?
very active fry, looking for food.
The big fish have to bear with the little room space for the time being. Lookig for the same plastic tank.
