Back like the preverbial bad penny

Hi all.
Can't believe this account is still active
Anyway! On Friday, my mum phoned me at work, asking if I want some "tropical" fish. Turns out the ex husband of one of her friends has tragically passed away, leaving behind a cat and a fishtank, complete with inhabitants. From somewhere in the background, her friend piped in that they were fancy goldfish - not tropicals, and that I can have the lot - tank, filter, gravel, stand - everything.
Went to pick them up last night. . .
Please allow me to introduce my new tropical, fancy common goldfish (and blackmoor) :rolleyes:
On a serious note, the tank's only about 20gal, and the filter's a miserly Fluval internal
:rolleyes: so I'm fostering the commons until I can find a pond for them to go into. Otherwise, I'll be left with no option but take them to the LFS, and I think the poor things have been through enough already
Obviously they're small atm - about 3-4in, but 2 of them were added recently (which 2, I don't know).
As for the BM, I intend to keep him, upgrade the tank and get him a few real fancies
