Fun Fish Fact Friday (Rule)

New friday, new fish. Goldfish! Piggybacking off my last post where I had some advice, I want to talk about goldfish and how mistreated they are.

Again, these fish need space! Please give it to them. The minimum I've seen recommended for even small "fancy goldfish," is 25 gallons. With 10 more gallons for each goldfish you add. Goldfish can live for 15+ years, yet so many people think theyre ahort lived fish and that probably has a lot to do with people putting them in tiny tanks!

Speaking of misinformation about goldfish, another one that upsets me is the all too common "memory of a goldfish" line. Goldfish can remember things for months, can learn to navigate puzzles/mazes, and can not only recognize and remember other goldfish but their owners too!

Goldfish are lovely pets please treat them with the respect and love they deserve!
