Just Finished My Growing Tanks Options

[PERRY]

SO here is my plan In about a month once green alge starts to bloom I will be stocking these two 65 gallon barrels with many different types of fancys on barrel will be for the stronger swimmers like Ryukins, and Ranchus, orandas the other will be for celestial eyes, bubble eyes, and pearl scales. I might even do a third barrel for koi, dont know yet but I have an air stone hooked up for both of the barrels probably do a 50% water change weekely (if possible). I will also have a large show aquarium in my room which I will use to swap out different fish that look good. Any suggestions thanks ~JP

Oh ok cool its that constapilation a major problem? I've never experienced that I feed with floating pellets and spiralina alge flakes. But I am going to get the lionhead pellates as well.

And just to clarify Im using the Hirki Oranda/lionhead pellates not the true sinking Lionhead pellates.

Constipation and SBD often occurs with egg-shaped goldfish because their internal organs have evolved beyond common goldfish (more compressed). Sinking pellets are better because they reduce the chance of your goldfish gulping too much air.

I fed my ranchus with Hikari Wheatgems for koi without soaking and soon they start to float with their back exposed. They turned normal after a few days of fasting and a diet of greenpeas (it reduces impaction from pellets)
