Regular Member laur29 Posted April 28, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted April 28, 2016 Hi everyone, I've been caring for common goldfish for about 3 years. I currently have 2 new ones that I brought 4 days ago. They seem very happy in their new home, but they keep putting their heads into the part of the pump the gives out the clean water, then the pump makes some sort of vibrating noise while their heads are in there. I don't know if this will harm them or not. Someone please help! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member jmetzger72 Posted April 29, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted April 29, 2016 I can't tell from the picture, but maybe you could over it with a piece of netting and use a rubber band to hold it in place 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
