Remember, a good rule of thumb when determining how many fish to add to a tank, is 1 inch of fish per gallon of tank. Keep in mind that fish will grow, so the 1" to 1 gallon rule applies to adult size.

Be patient. It is worth it!

i would have to say yes

yes you should try it out now, if you got all that stuff done i think the goldfish should be alright in there now.

You can do it. We had the same goldfish for 2 years. Although it is sometimes frustrating because they do die. When you get the fish home leave them in the bag with water that they sent you home with set the bag in the fish tank so that they can get used to the water. You don't have to feed them all the time either nor a big amount of food. Make sure the pump is flowing good. If you clean your tank out with dish soap make sure you rinse the tank out real good. Good luck

Check your ammonia level in tank and if it's cool then you can get more fish.you don't have to get goldfish.in a tropical tank you should have a heater and goldfish are cold water fish.get neon or something like that.

I would like to what kinda of goldfish you got..if you got feeder goldfish they die pretty easy.most of the time when you buy feeder goldfish half will die.

your tank should be fine its been filtering for 4 days that is plenty of time. but if your worried about it test the water to see if the pH level is right,temp etc goldfish are pretty hard to kill damn what did you do.

---

Instead of killing more fish you should look into doing a fishless cycle. http://badmanstropicalfish.com/articles/.

yes, but only buy a couple just in case so u dont waste money. if it doesnt work try the same thing again and again.

---

Try it. Get one or two fish and see if they die in a couple of days. If yes, then you sholdn't buy more fish.

Setting a tank up is a nerve wracking experience the first time. It gets easier though.
