I have been breeding and raising goldfish for sometime now and i would like to know , and i already know that goldfish and tropical fish are different. But would i like to know is what fish live with what fish, what tempature is the best for them. I already have 1 tank with 2 longfinned zebra dannio's and 2guppies as well as 3 neon tetras. The tempature is 75F i would like to know what else i could put with them in a 15 gallon fishtank. I also have another 15 gallon fish tank empty i would like to know what should i put it with. I also have another question is what kind of diesses do tropical fish get that goldfish and koi don't and what are the symptems. I know this is alot but i will give a best answer to who can really help me! :) thx in advance.

I would go with 4 more zebra danio & at least 3 more tetra's both are schooling fish and need a minimum of 6 in each school to feel secure, then the tank will be pretty much stocked to capacity, or you could remove the danio and try 4-6 hachet fish if you have a secure lid (they are showy but they are also jumpers) good luck!
tropicals get pretty much the same diseases as goldfish, ich, dropsy, coulmnaris, other fungal infections, there isn't as much of a concern with swimbladder disorder in tropicals as with goldies. Just keep your water perameters in line and keep the fishs' immune system healthy, quarrantine new arivals, acclimate well, and you should be fine... (I always keep a box of marycyn2 and cupric sulfate on hand just in case though)
here is a compatibility chart for fresh/brackish water fish http://www.liveaquaria.com/general/fwcompatibility_chart.cfm

Cory Catfish would be good. You have to should have 5 or more but Ghost Catfish are awsome. At Petsmart they have the fish organized into seperate groups, such as Tropical, Goldfish, and Tropical Semi Aggressive.

Zebra danios and neon tetras are schooling fish and should have at least six in their schools. You should start by adding to those two groups.

specific they are tropical fish. they could desire to be stored between seventy six-80 two F in any respect situations. maximum folk declare their Betta is sluggish and not shifting around alot. it somewhat is brought about by using water it is purely too chilly for them. i'm specific he will love his new living house!
