The scientific name of the Goldfish is Carassius auratus. The goldfish is one of the most commonly kept aquarium fish and water garden fish, this is according to the wikipedia the free encyclopedia.
My husband really like this goldfish. He bought last time a comet goldfish (the in the picture) but all of them died. We donot know why they die. So he bought a common gold fish. But still under observation. He still observe if the fish will not die he will buy another one. It is nice to see aquarium have many fish. How about you?

hello,myrrhyne! aquarium with gold fishes,eight red and one black,serve as silent affirmations of wealth and prosperity and also attracts good energy in to the house.fish symbolize a successful career particularly if the aquarium is oxygenated.the gold fishes don't live long.you are saying the fishes are dying which means the aquarium is running short of oxygen.you fit an oxygen box to it and let run always.besides if you give them much food they will not survive long.so give them less food.the perfect combination of gold fish in the aquarium is eight red and one black fish.eight red fishes symbolize wealth and prosperity and black fish denotes longevity.thanks a lot.have a good day.

really, thanks for the information. I will tell my husband about that.
They all die, one by one. my husband change the water a week and then he noticed that they are weak. My husband also put an oxygen but he closed it every night.
But i will tell him. Thank you once again.

Goldfish are a very popular aquarium fish. I have kept them for about 10 years. I have found that if the aquarium has an air stone, filter, and clean water, the fish do well. My biggest challenge is to not over feed the fish.
Having several gallons of water on hand for tank water changes allows any chemicals the water dept. put in the water to leach out. I hear that a 1/3 water change every few months is healthy.
Now that I feed the fish fresh fruit and vegies, they seem healthier.

thats all well and good but u cant pet it or play with them so that part is out but as far as a medicating tool they work better than any pill i find it easy to sit down and just watch the fish its the serenity and peacefulness that is the best it is peaceful and that part i like but i couldnt do it to much work for me remember to have the water and that be checked sometimes if there is a problem and fish die it could be in the water.
