Sites are saying 2 gallons per fish and the filter because they are dirty fish -- nm - Will Hunting May 28, 16:56 2
- I disagree. But if you want to forgo the filter system and still feel good. Buy some anacharis (it's a fish tank live plant) - Bacon May 28, 17:05 1
  - In fact there are other plants that will also eat the waste. Petco will have several varieties. - Bacon May 28, 17:06
I am guessing you went to a PETA type site. -- nm - Bacon May 28, 16:54 2
- Nope. Can I put them both in the same bowl? -- nm - kelly May 28, 16:58 1
  - Yep. As long as they aren't beta fish or angel fish types. Goldfish won't eat each other -- nm - Bacon May 28, 17:01
