Change of stocking. I am putting fancy goldies in this tank now. Currently home to one calico ryukin

I had to move 1 of the orandas into the tank. The new ryukin was terrified and hid, i honestly dont think its ever seen so much space and under lights too. As soon as the Oranda went in out it came and swimming happily with his friend, right on its tail lol

Nice goldies! is that going to be all goldfish tank?

 

[Alasse]

Thanks Yep it will be for the goldies

 

[sawickib]

Just those two guys are you slowing increasing the bioload?

 

[Alasse]

Slowly increasing
 
The oranda will end up moving back to its tank. I just need a buddy for the ryukin until i can get others that will make this tank home

Update:
 
The calico Ryukin and the Red-capped Oranda have now been moved out to the outside tank with Boofer (the 1ft fantail and the 1 eyed Oranda). So now there is just the Red&White Ryukin and the Pearlscale living in this tank.
 
I am waiting to hear from a local fishkeeper on him being able to source me some quality fancy goldies. Fingers crossed, as many at the stores are not the quality i am looking for in this display.
 
I am hoping to get some panda butterflys, ranchus, black moor & a few other possibilities
