I've been asked to write a FAQ on how to set up a goldfish tank for newbies who want to get it right, right from the begining.

I don't know it all... so here's my draft and I ask for your comments. Eventually we'll collectively build the FAQ when I combined all feedbacks. biggrin.gif

Green Water: Not Telling
Country: USA



For water change,

change water 10% - 20% everyweek is good.

Don't forget dechlorinate the water.

As for me, I change the water every other day smile.gif



o o I forgot, they should cycled the tank first before have goldfish inside the tank.
Until the perimeter is fine, then they can add goldfish.

During cycling time, they can have danios inside the tank, danios helps cycling your tank.

I have 12 danios in my tank during cycling, it lasted 3-4weeks for the tank to cycle.

That's what I learnt smile.gif
