Full Version: My Goldfish Needs A Buddy

I have a ten gallon with one 2" Ryukin who I've had for a about three months now. The tank recently cycled and I finally told my little brother I would consider getting my goldfish a roomate/s. Do you think my tank is too small to add another fish? I know I can't add another goldfish, but a few white clouds or zebra danios might be okay right? Also maybe a small algae eater of some sort. I know my goldy could eat most tank mates, but right now he's small. I don't think his mouth will be able to fit in any type of fish soon anyway.

Any advice is welcomed.

Thanks biggrin.gif

I would invest in a Bristle nose pleco, they are safe and will clean your tank. As for adding another goldfish I would suggest no on that one hun biggrin.gif

Are White Clouds okay in the tank? I know my goldfish could eat them, but I don't think he's big enough right now. Plus, do they need speacial food or can they eat goldfish flakes.

A few more questions. Do white clouds need to be QT? Also how many should I get.
