goldfishnewbie 1 Posted August 25, 2019 If a common goldfish was previously stunted (it is 3 inches at 1.5 years old), how much bigger do you think it would grow if I place it in a sufficient tank? Will it not grow at all, grow some, or grow to its full size? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest goldfishnewbie Posted August 25, 2019 I need to know this to know about any tank upgrades in the future, so if you look at this, please help! I am inexperienced and running on a very limited budget, as I am only a teen and have to do this without parents’ help/funding, because my little goldfish baby was won by a friend at a carnival. I need your (non judgemental) advice and tips on my common’s new secondhand 20 gallon and everything about him. Thanks so much all! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will it not grow at all, grow some, or grow to its full size? I wouldn't say he's stunted, just growing slow. I would update to a 20 long tank. 15 hours ago, Guest goldfishnewbie said: I need to know this to know about any tank upgrades in the future, so if you look at this, please help!
