    Default Q's About starting a goldfish tank

    Hi guys I hope you guys can help to start setting up a goldfish tank, I'll be using a 10 Gal tank I bought a few months ago and my idea is to put a single Sarasa Goldfish in it.

    If someone has experience with that particular fish and or any more pointers you guys can help me with will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    You would need a much larger tank then a 10 gallon. This fish can reach over a foot long.

    Check out this link it should answer some of your questions.

    I saw the most beautiful chocolate oranda in a store once. It's body was about a foot long at least and the the tail the same length. I was in a 200 gallon tank. I'll never forget it. It made me love goldfish.
