Great video Dr Novak, I have 4 Wakin Goldfish in a 40 gallon breeder tank and thanks to what I learned with you about anoxic filtration, the tank has never looked better or cleaner! Thank you so, so much for all that you do!!

Nice to hear about how your gold fish are doing - an underrated fish to keep, in my opinion. As long as they have a proper home, they live lots of years and display quite the personalities.

Very adorable goldfish. Did not know duck weeds is great for them. Edit addition: Just a suggestion, you can plant one of the "bamboo" in one of your pots in your lanai. In that way you will have a good supply of the bamboo for the other aquariums.

The better way is to just weigh your fish and feed 1-2% of their bodyweight throughout day. Allow green algae to grow and they forage that too.

💯% I keep goldfish and I believe duck weed is a must in their diet, I believe that is why most have swim bladder issues, as well as poor water quality because of their underestimated bioload. I’ve never had swim bladder issues with my Goldie’s but I now run your bcb baskets for them and always add plants and duckweed for them to graze, they are graziers which is why they eat so much, so smaller portions are better 😉👍🏼

30 mil milliliters to 10 gallons of water only once a day. So A 30-gallon aquarium would take 90 mL of hydrogen peroxide once a day. Inject the hydrogen peroxide to the aquarium when the lights are out only..

I don't have duck weed, but I am starting to feed raw garlic. It's supposed to be a twice as week regimen and is supposed to be good to help remove parasites. I also slice some orange very thin, anchor it to the side of the pond and let them eat it down to the rind. I have 4 fancy goldfish.

For 40 year's I've taken my earthworm's and put them into a container of sphagnum moss, preferably German. As they burrow through it they leave behind the dirt that's inside of them for a cleaner feed. Since my yard and mulch pile are all organic their is a lot of good nutrient's so I usually put some worm's directly in my tank.

Hello Dr Novak.. I bought some duckweed for my goldfish. As I approached my pond my gold fish came over asking for food as usual. I put some duck weed into the pond. They all took some into their mouths then spat it all out again. They did this a few times over then just left the duck weed alone. They won't eat it at all. I thought how strange. They also will not eat worms. Do you think they won't eat it because they are still so young and small?

Try kingkoigoldfish.com they are cheaper than Coast Gem, and do seem to have a good quality of fish. If your fish seems to have swimbladder problems already, it may never cure itself. However, something you can try, is like feeding it softer foods like duck weed and live plants, and none of your processed foods.
