And what size do you think they get to? Are they hard to keep?

They're just goldfish. They will live as long and are as easy to keep as any other goldfish. They need about 30 gallon tank for one, 40-55 gallon for two or three. I had two in a 55 gallon and it really wasn't big enough after a couple of years.
They can live a long time, 30+ years, but typically I'd say that make it to about 7. A lot less if not cared for properly.
I believe they typically get to be about 7 inches, but grow to about 12 inches or so in a pond.

Smaller canines and likewise medium canines will actual stay longer than super and extra-super canines!! Chihuahuas stay from 11-20 years (around that to fifteen or sixteen, say sixteen) than beagles stay approximately 15 years, whether while you're looking after them properly, they'd stay as much as 17 years, so enable's basically say sixteen years. the traditional is approximately 15-17. wish that facilitates!!!
