Care of goldfish fry

we have some koi in a big pond in the backyard and all we do is keep an aerating circulator going.Goldfish and koi are carp.I think They can live almost anywhere. When I had goldfish in a tank in my office, Id change their water rather infrequently but id keep another tank full nearbyso itd become similar to the temp of the one the fish were in.

Care of goldfish fry
Thank you all for the prompt replies. Some of them got out of the breeder nets (one of my kittens decided to go fishing and knocked the tank lid into the tank, ripping the net) and seem to be fine in 12-inch deep water, so I'll play it by ear and let them escape. Hey, if they're wiley enough to escape and survive, they deserve the run of the tank, don't you think? nml

Oh, BTW, I don't think I'd want to eat goldfish...they've pretty nasty potty habits....javascript:emoticon(':wink:')

I've got a pretty fair sized pond - 'bout a quarter acre surface area - fulla goldfish - the only care they get is what they handle on their own, apart from the pond's flora, fauna, plumbin' and filtration. I don't even feed 'em, and I wind up thinnin' out the herd every spring - they seem perfectly able to find ways to entertain themselves under the winter ice. And over the years, some of 'em have gotten pretty big.

Did someone say fish fry?

Re: Care of goldfish fry


I would put a divider in the tank keeping them seperate from the filter. I also recommend using weekend feeders to feed them since they feed infrequently and flakes are messier. When they get larger toss in zucchini or orange slices to get them bulked up in a healthy manner. (I'm not playing when I say oranges)

sorry u cant use the electric filter so earlier but u can make use of bio-sponge filter

use a foam to filter and scrub. Don't forget to still use a small pool for filtering in several stages with various types of filters, because I always use several filter pools
