I keep fancy goldfish. I like to nerd with new ideas and solve problems that aren't really there... If you're in EU, and need fish supplies, you may want to use my referral link to Aquaristikshop: https://www.aquaristikshop.com/dk/492638 I use them a lot!

The babies in a tub! I have picked the 20 largest babies and moved them to a larger tank. Also I have culled approximately 10 that had some disfiguration. The rest go into a 90 liter tub to keep growing. I had chat gpt count them and it says approximately 150 #goldfish #fishbreeding #fancygoldfish

He was struggling with swim bladder disorder so he was constantly at the surface, belly up
No local vets were willing to help. His skin was getting irritation as it got exposed to air. I had tried all regular options: salt, peas, gel food, soaked pellets, less protein. So i tried draining air.

You can now see some of them getting double tails. They currently live in baby brine shrimps that I have bought frozen #goldfish #fancygoldfish #fishkeeping #fishtank

Water changes are tricky when you goldfish fry are both too small and too "unskilled" to survive it

Annubias from my big tank. look at those roots!

Don't pin them under rocks though because they will rot due to lack of oxygen. Also remember not to cover the large rizome with sand or gravel. Only the small roots should be digged in.

4 babies in a grow out setup that they will live in until they grow large enough to be moved into the bigger tanks #goldfish #fancygoldfish #oranda #fishkeeping #fishtank

Quarantine setup for the new fish. It is 90 liters but still needs water changes every 3 days.

Sorry for the late reply! No this has not been a concern at all even though it's ol'd wooden floors.

In older houses you may consider the direction of the bearing floor boards. You can often see where to top layer has been nailed to them, and place the tank across them.

At least others get to mess with it and hopefully get it to good use

I managed to exchange all this to a few bags of hornwort and a water test set πŸ˜‚

We all have that box with cables and converters that we never use, but can't get rid of, in case we may need some of it..

This is my similar collection of partially functional filters that i have kept "just in case". It seems like it is worth a lot less that I feel it is...

First (really) sunny day since i set up the extra tank, or maybe since i had the curtains up?... Hadn't noticed that the sun can be on these for a few hours every day. Hoping that it maybe will give them some stronger colours with time!

Thank you! They make up for all the beautiful things that I can't have in my tanks because of them πŸ˜‚

Really? It sounds like the plane hit the giraffe while it was taking off.. I sense a lot of victim blaming here!

Unless it's a flying giraffe in which case this would be amazing. Especially because it needs an airport runway to take off!

DIY goldfish food with the new blender!

Shrimp, cod, broccoli, peas, kelp and spirulina. I use agar agar to jellify. It holds in the fridge for a week or who, but i freeze the rest and take out for a week at a time

Oranda goldfish is now done. What goldfish will come next, I wonder? For it is inevitable.

First time properly using Fabriano and I really rather enjoyed it. Bit more texture to work with, but the end result grew on me - going to test this paper out a lot more.

Update on the new fish!

One sadly did not make it. The remaining are doing pretty well but one of the telescopes is spending too much time at the surface. Will try to see if there is anything to be done with salt and epsom salt

New fish arrived. Bred and shipped from Italy! Very excited to get them! They'll move into a slightly salted quarantine until they get settled. They will then be moved into the other tanks!
