Dear Sue Thank you for your shared feeling. Anyhow, the more we lose, the more we care. But what strikes me to say is that the koi with red blotches is still...
Hi members, the CGFS is preparing for a spring 2003 on-line goldfish show. Be a member, participate and enter fish in the show, it's free. Check it out at...
Hi Tom, About a month ago, I wrote about filtration for my 38 gallon tank. You recommended a Fluval internal filter, since I didn't want to use a hang on the...
Tom, Thanks. I will get a spray bar and see how that works :-) I love the Fluval internal filter. It is doing a great job and is almost invisible in the...

Hi, i am a newbie to having fish while my husband kept koi for years. Neither of us know much about goldfish breeding. He thought the fish was being...
It is a small canister filter that I used to place in the corner of the tank. You can get them in water movement volumes of 50+ gph to 300-400 gph (all of ...
Yes, The internal filter sits inside the tank. With the Fluval plus, you can either attach it to the side of the aquarium with a bracket, or it can be placed...
Hi, Goldfish can breed as soon as they get to one year old. For example, if they hatch this spring, next spring they are able to breed. However, 2 to 5 years...
Hi Gerard, We do not know how old the female is we just bought her 3 weeks ago. My husband thinks the male will chase the female even if she is sexually...
How big is the female? Usually goldfish are not territorial, can it be that the male is not in a spawning chase but a territorial chase. How long has the male...
I'm estimating that she's only 2 or 2 1/2 inches. The male is is almost twice as big as her. I don't think he is being territorial because eventhough we only...
Hi Kami, I think they were spawning alright!!. You may have a few eggs. Check the plants onto which the female was driven. There may not be many because the...
hi again, yesterday he was at it for a few hours and I checked periodically and there was nothing. Today as far as I know he hasn't bothered her (could have...
hi there, I have a goldfish book that tells you how to breed them but doesn't tell you how to tell the difference between male and female or when their old...
Hi Taby, Goldfish is very hard to sex outside spawning season. Male goldfish will show white spots on their gill plates (or operculum) and also on the leading...
Dear Taby Keep in mind that spawning season environment is different from other environments. Even if your fish are ready to mate, they will not spawn if the...
I've recently tried making some gel food for my gf following recipes I found on various forums and they seem to love it but everytime they take a piece into...
I'm cycling a new tank at the moment using fish food as I can't get pure ammonia anywhere and things are progressing very slowly. Today, however, I've noticed...
Dear Helen Try not to do things on hurry in your tank. Let areation and filteration syetems work normally. You will be sure that useful bacteria will spread...
Dear Helen Make some changes in the food components until you find the type of gel food your fish like. If you find it is in vain, go to local store and get...
Dear all My little koi has emerged with black color for a while. His original color is orange. The new color covered his tail, fins and some parts of his...
Dear Helen, The easiest way to cycle a tank if you have other tanks is to squeeze a filter sponge of a settled tank. Don't waste money trying commercial...
Hi, I'm a newbie to having fish and I seem to have a little problem. A month ago I decided to buy an aquarium. I bought a 60 lt. one, and I put 5 common...
Hello Irene, Welcome to our group. Could you tell us a little bit more about yourself? Where are you located (northern or southern climate) (Europe or the...
First of all how long after setting your tank up did you wait before adding the fish. A new tank can take several weeks to cycle and if you add the fish too...
I have goldfish Charlie, a sarrasa comet and Marty, my Ryukin. They live together in harmony but lately Marty has been engaging in what seems to be mating...
