The goldfish (Carassius auratus) is a freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae of order Cypriniformes. It was one of the earliest fish to be domesticated, and is one of the most commonly kept aquarium fish.
Ever since i rely love to have a goldfish to be my pet. there are so many different kind of goldfish. but all kind of goldfish is so lovely to be a pit.
Goldfish is a perfect way to comfort you and get away your stress. simply observed them the way they swim to the corner of your pond or aquarium then it will make you smile. it seems that they are just playing underwater and entertaining you.
HERE ARE MY SUGGESTION TIPS ON HOW TO TAKE GOOD CARE OF GOLDFISH
1st----
You have a proper space area of your goldfish average space should be 3x3. 3 feet length, 3 feet wide, and at least 2 feet deep. ( the bigger the better )
NOTE:
--- Goldfish is also good in pond ( for me goldfish would be more nicer if you put them in outdoor pond area because their color will be more nicer and lovely.
----Goldfish should not be put on bowl ( small space ) goldfish will not be healthy on that small space.
2nd---

Goldfish last for 30 years so handle them with care to last them longer.
FOR FOOD:
too many kind of food to choices from the market.
this are my variety of food to feed my goldfish
filter with aerator brand
I highly recommend the black knight and precision brand
( note: in 1 year or more of using this 24 hours none stop. in case not working anymore just check it, for sure it is stock of waste of your fish. clean it then it will work again )
For more of your need to your goldfish you can check it to the pet shop near you.
( in Cebu you can check it at Manalili area and SM mall )
ENJOY........
HOPE THIS WILL HELP......
