Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / March 2005bubble eye
Hi, We are new to fish. We recentlyy got a bubble eyed fish for our five year but now are worried that it is lonely since we read that bubble eyeds are social. We also have a guppy in another tank and thought to put them together. Is that a good idea? our tanks are rather small. Thanks kindly. Jacob Um...bubble eye as is big outstandidng eyes, or bubble eye as is air filled sacs near the eye?? You are talking about a goldfish aren't you?? I would not advise putting another type of fish with the goldfish. I hope you have the goldfish in a 10 gallon (37Litre) tank...otherwise your poor fish wont last long...If you want to add another fish to accompany they bubble-eye, find a 20 gallon tank and buy another goldfish...something like a fantail, moor, ranchu, loinhead, oranda. I would advise against getting a comet or common at this stage. What do you use for filtration?? Do you have a air-pump? What sort of food are you foeeding your fish?? What is your water change pattern? What size tank do you currently have?? Are you planning on getting another tank? Do you or can you take a water sample to your pet shop to get tested?? Sorry about all the questions :-) Yell out if you need a hand cheers! > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Jacob > Um...bubble eye as is big outstandidng eyes, or bubble eye as is air filled > sacs near the eye??

They are rather delicate due to the eye sacs and are considered one of the most delicate of fancy varieties. Please tell us more about your set up so that we can help you better. Maria The thing with some pet shop is that they label their fish incorrectly....My lfs labels a celestial and moor as 'bubble eye' fish..when they are clearly of the telescopic kind...so...i guess its a good think to establish this as there are heaps of begginer calling telescopic eyes bubble eyes >> > We are new to fish.
