Answer 2

for best care... 1. give 2-3 gallons of water per inch of fishs body to offset the amount of waste he will produce. 2. they are omnivoures and should have a 50/50 diet so along with the goldfish flakes/pellets offer him fresh aquatic plant or fresh veggies like green peas,brocolli,ect. 3. keep up with your water quality, make sure you have your water tested or you will never know what is going on with your tank. 4. do not overfeed goldfish- they do not have an internal mechanism that tells them they are full they will eat and eat. Feed every other day with flakes and let him eat veggies/plants on opposite days. 5. Swimbladder is a common problem with fantails to avoid this pre soak all flake and pellet foods in water before feeding fish. good luck

Answer 3

They don't require heaters which is one of the good things abut them, but bear in mind that they do grow quickly, often outgrowing the tank they're in (Up to 10 gallons). Make sure you have weekly water changes and filter changes. Maybe have a pleco in as well for housekeeping. If well-kept, they shouldn't be expensive to care for.
