    Hi guys, here is one of my old videos that I made when I moved my goldfish into my aquarium while I was doing maintenance on the pond.

    Goldfish certainly do make for a pretty display tank with a black background but I personally found them a bit boring and was quite happy to put them back into the pond :)

    That tank looks very colorful but we do agree. Goldfish belong in a pond... hehehe

    Haha yeah they do @Jack Stone
    @Reedfish oddly enough most of the people that visited my house at the time seemed to be far more intrigued by the bloody goldfish than any of my other fish :confused: I felt the same when I had the Malawi Cichlid setup and everyones favourite fish in the tank was the clown loach :/ People are strange

    What sort of comments? It's a very unusual looking fish but they don't seem to be very active...

    thats true, they're not pretty and nor are lungfish :)

    goldfish in a tank look really cool, and I would imagine if you have a public aquarium sized setup full of fancy koi, it would really look amazing
