For The Love Of BlubBlubs!

Welcome to Talk Fishy To Me! The photo of this blog's representative is Mobi! The Mod's Goldfish. =D Talk Fishy To Me will have Goldfish photos, art, Goldfish facts, tidbits exploring the history of Goldfish, the Goldfish diet, (sadly) Goldfish abuse, and helpful health tips to have a long life with your little finned companion. Images of Goldfish being harmed or abused in any way will not be present on this blog as I'll have full control. Peace out.

Tell me again how a 10 gallon is appropriate for a goldfish.

I am obsessed with my goldfish tank.

Absolutely stunning tank.

Do you think I could get the equipment list?

Just a few of my gorgeous pond babies. I have a big mix here and this definitely isn’t everyone! In order their names are; ‘Ol One Eye, Kimi, Stabby, Hoshi, Zero, Tardigrade, Bearcat, Harumi, and Kai. Harumi is my biggest fish (a top view Ranchu) at around 130g. These guys are happy to finally have consistently warm weather!

Goldfish myths are embedded in our culture. Here’s a closer look at many misconceptions people have about them. As a goldfish owner/lover myself, I think it’s important when anyone new to the hobby learns why these myths hurt goldfish as a pet, and how to properly care for them so they can reach a nice ripe age of 10-20. I’d love it if these myths could be dispelled to the point where no one believes goldfish belong in fish bowls. :) Here are the links for the references:

Why I don’t recommend gravel or pebbles in goldfish tanks: my goldfish have both become big enough to swallow these algae tablets whole. Luckily, the pellets disintegrate very quickly and do no damage. A piece of substrate this big (or even smaller pieces) will get stuck if your goldfish swallows them (which happens quite often!), and in a lot of cases you’re going to have to take them out with tweezers. This is very stressful for the fish.

Your goldies may not be big enough to swallow substrate this size now, but they will be sooner than you think!

They’re all getting so big! Especially Hobbes. She’s just gotten HUGE lately! I need to get some weigh ins done soon! Last time Calvin and Hobbes were around 65g, and I think Bear was around 10g. I’m guessing Hobbes is pushing 80g, Calvin probably 75g, and bear is probably 8g. How many grams do you guess they are?
