Advantages: Easy to look after, pretty and relaxing to watch

Disadvantages: Some people may think they're boring!

My boyfriend and I live in a flat, so unfortunately we are unable to have large furry pets, and decided to get goldfish instead!

We have one 'Black Moor', she is very pretty, but one thing to remember with 'Black Moor' goldfish is they have poor eyesight compared to the other varieties, so they can be a bit slower to see the food before the other fish!

We also have a 'Red Cap', she has a orange/red head and a white body, although she is a different breed of goldfish to our 'Black Moor' they are roughly the same size and seem quite happy co-habitating.

I love watching them swimming around in the tank, we have real plants in the tank which they like to try to eat! Having real plants helps keep the water regulated.

Our goldfish are very easy to care for, my top tip is to never over-feed the fish. Also when putting the food into the tank it is best to pinch the food and put it under the water level, this is because if the food is floating on top of the water and the fish eat it they can swallow air (not to good for their tummy's).

Summary: Easy to look after, pretty and relaxing, be careful not to over-feed!
