My Shubunkins

Well heres my tank the fish dont like to sit still LOL. Got a picture of my lil fish with a disability hes missing his gill . Hes one of the most active ones so it hasnt hurt him just weid to look at. Im going to change to a sand substrate when i can the white rock came with it and its my least favorite. After i took all the pics and uploaded them i looked at the aquarium and they were doing Fish formations a perfect diamond shape LOL




THis one is my favorite hes the Alpha fish. all the others follow him.


Always forget my plecostomous hes always out of site till nights I think his tail is sticking out of the water when he is upside down LOL

The white one is a comet - shubunkins are all multi colored with varying amounts of white orange and blue/black. But that is ok - white is pretty too and really sets off the colors of the shubunkins.

I Really want primarly black shubunkin but dont have room for it DANG. was looking at black moors but i read that they will starve if their tank mates are faster than them . something bout their eyesight isnt good and dont see food right away and faster fish gobble it up to quick

I love black moors!!! Yeah the fancy goldfish like pearl, lion and moors etc seem to do better with other fancy goldfishes that are like them, slower and calmer. Maybe...you could get another aquarium for fancies........?? hehehe I used to have fancies in the house , they are so sweet and wonderful!!!!!!!!!

NO NO NO LOL

I wanted a tropical tank originally and only got the shubunkins cause they were cheaper than a heater LOL BUt now im attached to them . so when i got a bigger tank they got the big one and the fish that came with the big aquarium were sent to the 10 gallon along with the heater that came with the big one hehe the heater is catacorner jsut to fit in the 10 gallon LOL. So now i need ANOTHER big aquarium to have the tropical tank i wanted in the first place, then ill have a spare 10 gallon which is to small for goldfish anyways so its going to be a beta tank or something

a 10 gallon would be good for a betta...or maybe a small school of tetras or barbs...

It also would make a great qt tank... I need to get one of those so I can finish stocking my 36 gallon tank....lol ( I already lost a bunch of fish due to having no qt and putting the newbies right in the main tank)...I WILL NOT DO THAT AGAIN!!!
