No, not in a tank. And it's true that a fish left in a big pond will grow bigger than one in a tank.

All depends on the size of the pond.


It all depends on the space and food you give it. The potential size of a goldfish is like 9-12 inches.. And they can up to 20 years.
It depends. Goldfish size depends on the following factors:

1. Species. Some will grow up to 12 in., some only up to 3 in. What kind of goldfish do you have? Shubunkin, Koi, Fancy Goldfish etc.?

2. Aquarium size. Fish grows only as much as their environment allows it to. Basic rule is 1 cm of adult fish size per 1 gallon of aquarium water.

3. Fish care. This include clean water, air pump and filter, and regular food supply.

4. Fish tankmates. Your goldfish might be happier with a companion. Just choose a smaller, peaceful variety, e.g., Guppy, Platy, Neon Tetra, Molly, etc. Refrain from adding to your tank any aggressive or semi-aggressive fish, e.g., betta, gourami, paradise fish, angelfish, flowerhorn, etc.

Happy goldfish keeping!


yes they do and willif a ready food source is avalable
no the tank size fish size is jus a rumer that is not true it will get bigger and fatter if u feed it more just like any living creature but even if you put more things in if area is too small it will stress fish out but it wont get over a certain size
Goldfish release a hormone and if not taken out with regular water changes it stunts the fish. So if you kept a goldfish in a 10 gallon tank but did water changes everyday and the water params were always on spot then it can reach its full grown size, around 8-12 inches. Of course a bigger tank is always better, it gives the fish more room to swim and you wont have to do water changes as often. But it also depends on the food, if you only gave it junk food and not the necessities that it needs then it won't matter what size tank it is in and how often you clean it.
