Another thing with Goldies is that they produce a lot of waste (ammonia). The only way to know how much waste you have is to do a water test using a test kit.... Most of us use API's Master Test Kit. $30 in LFS or about $18 online. Another question is.... what size tank do you have them in? I would say for the bare minimum for the one you have a 10g is better.... But a 20g would be best. Also, what other fish do you have in their? If you can give a little more information.... we can help you out a lot better.... Did you add anything to the tank? What kind of filtration are you running.... Stuff like that.... Hope we can help you keep your Goldies happy in the long run.
