Nice tanks. I see lots of twinbar platies. My platies always end up too aggressive to keep with goldfish.
The platys are not real...they are on the background sheet....they would end up as goldfish food otherwise....they look real though eh
pretty goldfish. My big white and orange spotted koi died 2 nights ago. I miss him! I loved him so much he would swim along the side of the tank and beg for food! so cute! He was the biggest fish I've ever had and he lived for about 4 years. I got him when he was just a tiny little baby and he had grown tremendously!!! He was a sweet guy he even shared a tank with some little goldfish.....
Gorgeous fish! Its so nice to see goldfish in tanks big enough for them. I'm sick and tired of seeing goldfish cramped in tiny quarters.
Good job for providing good care for your fishies! :D :D
Beautiful fish! Your tanks look really nice. :)
Yes i know what you mean...these fish are actually rescue fishQuote:

Poor things freaked when i put them in the big tank...not used to having so much space....but they have settled in nicely...and they are 2 truely beautiful boys....and i am pleased i managed to get them before their fate was sealed
Stunning tanks!!!!
Please come and aquascape mine for me! I just chuck in plants and let the fish move them as they please!
I'd do it if i lived closer *L*Quote:

Wow! All your tanks are gorgeous! I ecspecially love your big goldfishies:D I love big goldfish:) And you definately know how to decorate tanks good:)
Thanks for sharing the great pics with us.
I had to buy a new 2ft tank....the old one sprung a leak again and i didnt notice as i'd been at the hospital for most of the night and still wasnt feeling to well for most of tnext day. When i got up it was soon obvious the tank had breathed its last
Unfortunately i lost 2 cories and 3 danios...but managed to get the others into a bucket and hopefully they'll be fine
So now i have a nice new one....its the standard rectangle shape but is higher than the old one. No background as yet...and needs more plants eventually
Its half filled with rainwater and half town...so hopefully the PH should be lower...making it less stressful on the new additions that will be picked up in a few weeks

I made some new tank decorations today....i think they should look good....and a heck of a lot cheaper than what you buy in the shops
