    Default Fancy Goldfish

    Quick question about stocking a 75 gallon tank. How many fancy goldfish would be a comfortable amount with some smaller fish tankmates and how many would with just goldfish. Assuming proper cleaning, water conditions etc??

    I have 4 goldfish and 3 Dojos in my goldfish tank...

    I won't be adding any more...

    I think you could get 4-6 fancies...and maybe a couple of others, but there are not many fish that 'go' with goldies...

    I'd say 5 or 6 fancies also. As for tankmates you might want to leave it all goldies... Goldies are kept around 60-70 so it limits what else can go in the tank... Good luck...

    No heater and keep the room the tank is in at about that temperature.
