Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / February 2005Adding NewFish to the big Tank
As you may recall, we became the new family of a very lucky carnival feeder fish. We already have OldFish, also a lucky carnival feeder, in a 29 g. NewFish has been in Quarantine for about a month now - doing swimmingly, I might add. Thoughts on making them roommates? OldFIsh is about 5-6" long (15 cm). NewFish is 1" (3 sm). Young Son is worried that OldFIsh will eat NewFish, but I don't think his mouth will open that wide. I'd hate to be wrong about that though. :) A  Signaturehttp://snipurl.com/cz4a : Submit a Google Request "Default quoting of previous message in replies." > As you may recall, we became the new family of a very lucky carnival feeder > fish.

I'd hate to be wrong about that though. :) Maybe install a temporary tank divider? I saw one of those devices at the LFS, and the picture on the box had a big fish looking menacingly at some little fish across the divider, I think. I'm thinking of getting one to separate my Oranda from my Fantails during feeding time. > "> > Will OldFish let NewFish get any food during feeding time? Well, I think si. There are two tetras in the tank, and everybody eats. > Maybe install a temporary tank divider?

I don't think the tank would be big enough for OldFish if I cut his swim zone in half. A |
