Goldfish and a bowl please

Goldfish Welfare and why we advise larger aquariums.

Goldfish are one of the most popular freshwater fish in the world, and for good reason. They are beautiful, easy to care for, and can live for a long time. However, many people don't realise that goldfish need a lot of space to thrive. A small bowl or tank is not enough for a goldfish, and it can lead to health problems and a shorter lifespan.

Here at Pet Aqua, goldfish welfare is our priority. That's why we always advise a large aquarium or pond for goldfish. A 100 Litre aquarium is the minimum size for a single goldfish when fully grown.

Goldfish are active swimmers, and they need the space to move around. They also need an efficient filter to keep the water clean.

If you're thinking about getting a goldfish, please do your research and make sure you have the right setup for it. Goldfish are amazing pets, and they deserve to live in a healthy and happy environment.

Here are some additional reasons why we advise large aquariums or ponds for goldfish:

* Goldfish produce a lot of waste, and a small tank can quickly become overcrowded and polluted.

* Goldfish need a lot of oxygen, and a small tank doesn't have enough surface area for the water to properly aerate.

* Goldfish are social animals, and they need to be able to interact with other fish.

* A large aquarium or pond can provide a more natural environment for goldfish, and it can make them happier and healthier.

* Goldfish are active swimmers and need plenty of space to swim and explore.

* A Larger aquarium will ensure Goldfish grow to their full size, as they can become stunted in a small tank.
