Goldfish Anyone?

Great age for a gold fish!

Cool. You must have looked after your fish really well, I bet it eat heaps. What do you feed it?

She eats regular goldfish food, though I try to look for the best. She costs me an arm and a leg but its worth it. Lol and yeah she does eat in heaps lol. Since shes getti ng up there in age her fins dont work as well, so Ihave to knock the food from the surface to let it sink and I put alot in there so she can grab some, so her tank needs cleaning often, but heck, I'll do it.

great fish! thats really amazing how long you've had her you must treat her very well.

Thats awesome. My friend had a feeder goldfish that lived 6 years

[cvBon1]

I never thought she would live so long. In fact the store owner I bought her from told me (I bought two at the time, her and another) that the Fantail would last the lifspan of a human if I took care of it, and the other one, the Ryunkin, a few years, 4 tops probably. I thought she was the other one, the Ryunkin.

But I mistakened, cause the other fish died at 8 years old (still long, Im sure he would've lived longer if he didnt get sick and attacked by the filter)... and Buggy? Kept on living. She survived being tossed out of the water, and even anhour and half truck ride in a bucket when I moved a few years ago.

She's one strong fish!
*knockin on wood* lol

Nice to see someone actually takin' care of goldfish instead of stuffin' 'em in a too small tank or bowl and wonderin' why they die. Not a goldfish person, myself, but I do like my fish.
