The first Goldfish needs 20 gallons of water and all other Goldfish in the tank need an additional 10 gallons each. I know it is a lot of water for just a few fish but if they are kept in a smaller tank then they will become 'stunted' which means that they stop growing but their organs do not, which results in a slow painful death. Poor fishies! :'(

Also Fancy Goldfish such as Fantails, Orandas, Black Moors, Lionheads and Pearlscales such not be kept with Comets and Common Goldfish, as they cannot swim as fast as Comets and Commons so will end up starving to death through lack of food at feeding time.

I hope I helped :)
