Regular Member JordanWong1998 Posted July 12, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted July 12, 2014 It's been almost 3 entire months; If not, longer. And my "common goldfish" has not got any bigger. So with that being said, I did some research and I have found out that he is a rosy red minnow! I will still keep him, But may move him into a small 5 gallon tank. Right now I do have some black nose dace in with the rosy red minnow, They seem to be getting along! Well, I'm not sure if its good news, but I am happy about it. I recently got another 10 gallon tank and will be planning on using it for a lizard/salamander or possibly a frog! Im not sure where to put something like this, so sorry if in wrong section! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Mikey Posted July 12, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted July 12, 2014 Cool! I wouldn't put the rosy in a tank smaller than a ten gallon. They get bigger than you think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member goldiegeek Posted July 28, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2014 Jordan, if you want to start a new tank with something different, I recommend a 20 gallon long tank and an Axolotl. They are easy to care for, relatively speaking. They need very cold water (55-65). I blow a fan over the surface of my tank and it's at a constant 62 degrees. Check them out:) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member JordanWong1998 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Hey All! It's been quite some time, I've been busy, getting use to some new changes. I recently dropped out of my public school, and I am now taking classes online. AP Psychology to be exact! Yeah! Here is the picture you requested so long ago!

Regular Member GoldenSpoiledRotten Posted October 17, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2014 That is no minnow. It's a common goldfish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member JustRachel Posted October 18, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2014 Yep, that's a common goldfish. Rosy reds (fathead minnows) are long and thin and grow to somewhere around 3-4". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Hidr Posted October 18, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2014 Yep thats a goldfish. He needs a much bigger tank. 20 long or a 30 gallon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
