So they reckon a goldfish has a memory span of about three seconds? Would I therefore assume they have little intelligence? In my experience this is clearly not the case. As a child I had a pair of goldfish. They were won at the fair. It wasn't long before one died and the other seemed to go off its food, I guess it must have been ...  Read the complete review

Goldfish are a domesticated version of a wild Asian carp. These fish were often raised in ponds as a convenient food source, but sometime during the Chun Dynasty, 265-419, a yellow mutation was observed. This mutation became prized and fish of this colour were kept as pets rather than ending up on the plate with their less colourful ...  Read the complete review

My girl friend gifted me a aquarium and I was not at all happy with my gift but still I took it. There was two golden fishes and a black fish in it. I bought these aquarium to home and kept it near my computer table, I used to feed them everyday and was feeling like a burden to me to feed them on time. But after sometime I was so ...  Read the complete review

My Girlfriend and I bought a goldfish over a year ago!. Gold fish are graceful and beautiful and do not require alot of attention to take care of. A Fish tank cost us around £20 and fish food cost us only £5 for a massive container of it i swear our fish was spoiled. Gold fish are generally energetic and brighten up your household giving ...  Read the complete review

Goldfish are probably the most popular fish in the fish keeping hobby. A lot of people have or have had fish as a pet at some point and most of the time they would have had a goldfish. My dad used to keep tropical fish when I was a baby and I loved them. He later bought me a small tank with some goldfish. I had a ...  Read the complete review

Goldfish are a great 1st pet for children, you can get cool tanks for them (our kids have a sponge bob one) and they are pretty easy to look after. They are readily available in all good pet shops so you shouldn't have any trouble in finding one. It is usually recommended by the assistants in pet stores that you ...  Read the complete review

As all kids do, my daughter wanted a gold fish. I was keen to agree as it wasn't going to be a pet that ran around the house and filled the garden with poo. I wasn't too familiar with fish though so did a bit of research before we looked at any. I was advised to get a large container of tap water and keep it for a few days to get it to ...  Read the complete review

We've had gold fish on and off for a number of years, when I was a uni (a long time ago!) I kept a goldfish in a bowl - it was great to have a friend to talk to - ha! They don't really grow much in a bowl and just swim round and round all day! I remember first having fish and wondering why they looked half dead sometimes ...  Read the complete review

What more can I say, these fish are probably the easiest pet in the world to keep and over my last 29 years I have kept several. Some I have obtained form fairs and others I have bought from pet shops. All they really require is a tank and some feed, which may I add lasts a very long time. Personally I find all ...  Read the complete review

Very relaxing and easy care. I am going by owning a fish throughout my childhood and also for the last 9 and a half years. I moved into my first flat and my cousin decided she did not want the goldfish she won at the fair. Bob is now 9 and a half years old has has always lived in an unfiltered tank and he is fine. I never treat the ...  Read the complete review

About six months ago now, my mum won a tenner on the thunderball, and for some reason she decided the perfect thing to spend her money on would be a goldfish for my daughter. Now, I wouldn't have minded if she wanted to keep it at her house, but oh no - she purchased a tank, gravel, weed, food, and fish and dragged it all round to my ...  Read the complete review

I've pretty much had a goldfish all my life. Right from when I was a young children, begging my mum for a puppy, I got a goldfish for Christmas. When that died a couple of years later, my mum replaced it as another way to deter my eagerness for a dog. Every goldfish has been replaced since my first one, and now that I've moved ...  Read the complete review

Probably one of the most boring and cheap pets you can get but on the plus side if you look after them probably they seem to be imortal especially if you just have the one and put water plants in with the fish. When I was four years of age I desperately wanted a a pet of any description so that christmas myparents bought me a ...  Read the complete review

People have a lot of miss conceptions about fish as pets, and fish in general. Maybe this is because they are not classed as an animal (the RSPCA does not have any responsibility over them), maybe it's because we can't touch them. Whatever the reason fish still do however, make very entertaining pets. The main problem people ...  Read the complete review

The only real reason I have goldfish is that they belonged to someone else I knew and I offered to take them when they could no longer be looked after. I had always wanted pet fish, as I think they are very cute and pretty, as well as being relaxing to look at. These things may be so, but looking after goldfish is ...  Read the complete review

I have 3 gold fish of the fantail variety. I chose to set up a fish tank after doing a bit of research. I like them based upon appearance. when I was deciding on a tank I was looking into information to find out what would be ideal for me. I looked at the biOrb range but decided the tank was too small and was an unpractical shape for ...  Read the complete review

We used to have the gold fish in a bowl next to the TV, this lead to the cat sitting in front of the tv (blocking our view) and watching the fish go round and round. The cat (fortunately) was rubbish at catching them, but we moved them to the pond outside. The cat still spend most of her day watching them but they now have much more room ...  Read the complete review

Goldfish need time and care, it is cruel to keep a goldfish in a bowl, they like to swim. You would never buy a box, twice the size of your dog and expect him to live in it. Most fish in this country still come from abroad mainly singapore. They are housed in aquariums and holding tanks on river banks, the water is pumped ...  Read the complete review
