Starting at 2:45, that goldfish in the close right section of the tank began swimming with such confidence, only to face plant into the sand. These animals are beautiful, and I adore them

[johnc]

"some are over active." as one in the background does a face plant... lmao awesome.

"These fish get really big bodies, and they don't like to get hot." I have never related more in my 😐 🐟 🐡 🐠

[NYGOLD]

I'm glad you did a comprehensive goldfish video.

Goldfish are the pugs in the fishkeeping hobby, change my mind!

[Bigusbackus]

I like how cory hasn't lost touch with the average hobbyist and his videos are still informative and relatable. A lot of fish YouTubers start out great but then as the money etc comes in I find their videos aren't as relatable, still enjoyable though. He's reasonable, he doesn't just say "you need this cause its the best" not realising a lot of hobbyists can't go and buy the most expensive "best" item or if you have 20+ tanks there's going to be a lot of DIY projects rather then buying over priced fluval equipment for everything. Even when he's giving advice, you can tell he's got the average hobbyist in mind, some youtubers struggle to achieve that. Joey is one, love his videos but his channel is barely producing content that it use to, no one needs a tutorial on how to setup a aquarium gallery ya know what I mean?

I would argue that fancy goldfish are not cool water fish but rather a temperate water fish that can tolerate low to high ranges of water temp. I keep mine at 78F and they are doing fine.

2:47 That goldfish face plant on the bottom right 😂

I have a 7 year old fantail goldie in a 55 gallon, he's my water puppy. ❤

[DrawerFullofRocks]

Preferring to have biotope specific aquariums, I never thought I'd keep goldfish until I rescued a large Fantail from a college library. the she was kept in awful conditions. Ended up she died in my care from an extremely large internal tumor. Very sad. Now I keep 1 male, calico Ryukin and 1 male, red and white Fantail. I love them. It was a HUGE learning curve, but well worth it. I learned a lot from your videos, so I am very grateful. I feed them Saki-Hikari Fancy Goldfish pellets, Repashy Super Gold, duckweed, seaweed, and any steamed or boiled veggies and fruits they like...not all at once, mind you! LOL! They are thriving because of what I learned from you, and from researching so much! Their names are Kaku and Shizue. Hey!

[alecthenice]

I needed this when I was 10 and my mom said I could only get goldfish lol

[simonshaw]

I’m a fancy goldfish owner 1st, planted freshwater aquariums 2nd. Repashy Super Gold is a really good food for these chubby water puppies too. £80 for the big 2kg tub, and Vitalis Goldfish pellets £45 for 1.8kg. Peas every 2nd day and frozen cube of Brine shrimp, bloodworms, frozen krill or mysis (in rotation) every other day in between the peas. Love these fish. I have 7 in a 350Litte L shaped tank in my bedroom 😀

I'm in love with fancy oranda goldfish! I've followed you for a long time and always promote your amazing sponge filters!! I'm working on a channel that emphasizes goldfish and fish care! Thanks for the inspiration! I admire you're dedication to healthy aquariums and fish!!!

[YanickFM]

Thank you for making this video. My grandma is in the hospital and might not come home, and her two goldfish are in my care now. I want to be able to look after them

[shesellsfish]

Looking good, Cory. The trainer and gym time is really paying off. I, personally, wouldn't get goldfish unless I knew for sure I had a twenty year plan for caring for them. They are beautiful and derpy all at the same time.
👍💕👍

[maggiemcnamara]

Just bought 4 goldfish for my 200l tank. Absolutely in love

[morbidmizzy]

I've wanted a goldfish tank since I was a tiny bean. Trying to learn as much as I can before I get them. I've never heard about them liking cooler water. That's crazy. Thanks for the videos! Wish me luck

[trod]

I love these fish care guide videos, so informative! I was thinking one that you haven’t done a video on yet, could be the three most commonly sold sharks; that are sold at the local Petcos and Petsmarts. Bala, rainbow and red tail. It seems these sharks are sold so often, but the amount of care information that is provided to people from the pet store employees is usually quite lacking.

[KatzMeow]

I am about to get my fancy gold fish for my bowfront tank and I am super excited. I have always had cichlids. Your video is most helpful and I have learned so much about the goldies thanks for your video. You are most helpful....:)

[Myname-wz]

You are a wealth of knowledge. Whenever I have an issue, I refer to your channel because I know I can find an answer. Thanks for all you do!
