How many fantails should I have? #1
Hi all,
So I have downsized and no longer have a yard for a pond. I used to spawn fantails outside and sell the babies. I had just a couple breeding pairs and very large ponds. But since moving into an apartment I miss the goldfish so much, so I built a balcony pond. The pond is 260L so very small. Currently I have two fantails in the pond and I am wondering if that is ok. I have had them almost 2 years now. The pond is long 140cm long but not so wide(31cm) and 60-70cm deep. Do you guys think I could have three goldfish? These two are about 10cm long now. Resized Image

They say about 100litres each so I would go for 2! Looks like an amazing space I can imagine sitting there with a morning coffee !! So lovely ?

Just saying, Oneslug (The OP) Only ever made the one post back in May, so it is doubtful Oneslug will ever read your reply, best not to reply to old posts.
