Telescope Buying Guide

Carl asked:


My sister’s planning to get a new tank sometime next month for her black moors and she’s giving me her 5 gallon tank for my own fish. I really want to get the telescope eye so bad! I’ve been looking up on the internet about them but all I get is information about black moors or other fish similar to them. If you have a telescope eye goldfish where can I get one?

I’m planning on getting a 2 telescope goldfish today, but I don’t have the tank yet. I ordered the 20 gal. online and it’s coming tomorrow or the next day. Can I keep my goldfish in a large bowl until then?

highwayheadlights asked:


I am planning on getting a telescope goldfish and a black moor goldfish tomorrow from a local petshop.
Can anyone tell me the amount for each one?
Also, I heard I can’t keep these in a big bowl–do they have to go in a tank?
How much should they eat/how often?
How active are they?
And do they require special needs like coral or reefs or something?

goodmle asked:


I’m looking to buy two fish: a Black Moore goldfish and a Telescope Eye goldfish. Is there a good site anyone could suggest? Also, it is possible to ship fish? I know they are very fragile, but I don’t really have a good store in my area. Thankx!!!

I have a red telescope goldfish and I wanted to start a small aquarium. I was wondering what kind of fish work best with this type of fish?
Also he lives in i think a 10 gallon tank, maybe more. I have a filter, but the water is still cloudy. Do I have to change it every week?

Rigina asked:


I have 4 fish in my tank and one of them is a calico telescope fish. I don’t know how old is he but he’s really small and looks young.Today when I wanted to feed them, I saw that he was at the bottom on the rocks and not moving but still breathing. He had little tiny white spots on his fins. I don’t know what’s wrong with him and I hope he’s not dying.
Plz answer.

RLP asked:


I have 2 telescope eyed fancy goldfish, they live in a 25 gallon tank but I’ve just bought a new 40 gallon breeder for them. I’ve been looking at Hikari’s selection of goldfish foods, and most of them seem to be geared toward goldfish with headgrowths. Should I feed Hikari Oranda Gold? Or something more basic like Hikari Goldfish Gold, or Hikari Goldfish Staple?
Lunar W I know about all of those things and I do vary their diet… though I don’t feed any of my fish live fish because I don’t want them to get diseased.
