Three hours later no fish left alive. ( N/ `5 x& m5 G- SSo sad to see all the beautiful little things losing their lives.

Thanks! 7 d$ n! X( n1 L& W; s( eWhat fish should I add to my existing goldfish?- ^; c$ C$ b' @# m
I did not plan to have the least-expensive goldfish in my tank, but for the purpose of testing my water, I bought 5 of them. They have been doing very well. I do not think it ok to throw them away live. Then when I add fish, I have to consider what fish can live along with them. 6 l' Y$ M- t/ `+ GDo you have any suggestions?
