"Hi! My name is Sally here with expertvillag.com from Fish Fantasy in Riverside. We are going to be speaking about how to buy healthy fish. The gold fish are basically very easy to keep. As long as you keep a good filtration because they do produce a lot of ammonia. They don't have a stomach. They have a cecum so they produce more ammonia than most other fish. So top filtration and weekly partials of 5 percent is best for them. You don't need a heater. All you need is a fish tank and a good filtration system. They can live up to 20 years if cared for properly and give them a good balanced diet. They need some vegetables in their diet so you can get a Spareline pellet that has vegetation for the fish to eat. It is a good idea to feed them twice a day. "
