While goldfish are a great pet to have, they often bring sadness to their adoptive families because of their all-too-common extremely short lifespan. These little guys rarely last more than 5 years, and those are the lucky ones! But what if I told you that this pet can actually live for waaay longer - I’m talking decades?

SUMMARY:
- While household pet goldfish are expected to live anywhere from 5 to 10 years, they can live as long as 25 years in the wild!
- Goldfish suffer from being stuck in fishbowls with their own excrement. Just like people and other animals, goldfish poop contains toxins like ammonia, and this ammonia can burn their gills!
- The key to keeping goldfish healthy in a tank is to slowly introduce the same bacteria found in bodies of fresh water. And the first way to do that is to eliminate chlorine.
- You can remove chlorine from the water in the fish tank with a special conditioner found at most pet stores or online.
- If you put plenty of bacteria in the tank, it’s probably best if you wait a whopping 2 months before you bring any fish into the equation.
- You’ll need a tank that fits 30 gallons of water for fancy goldfish. You basically want 3 feet or so for them to swim around in. And for each additional fancy goldfish, you’ll need 10 more gallons.
- Don’t forget that you’ll have to refill around 30% of the water every 2 weeks. That’s because fish actually emit pheromones and hormones into the water.
- Unlike goldfish, beta fish love living in bowls! Beta fish are also used to living in slow-moving water, so they don’t require an automated filtration system.
- Regal white cloud minnows also make for great pets. Since these little beauties are used to living in ice-cold water from the White Cloud Mountains in China, you won’t need a heater for the tank.
- If you only have room for a small tank in your home, you may wanna consider adopting some blind cave tetras. And depending on who you ask, these fish look either really cool or kinda creepy, given the fact that they don’t have eyes.
