they all sound like bottem dwellers to me.
for the gold fish they eatn gold fish flakes for plecos they eat algea waffers.
the the weather dojo they eat leftover food that fall to the bottom if the tank.
i dont think temp matters.
i keep many fish that needs heat but didnt give them heaters and there fine.

Are you looking at doing an indoor unheated tank? Or a pond....

hope you've got a big tank!

I would be dubious about:

coldwater plecos

Can you describe/find a picture/or get the species of to which you are referring?

I've seen many fish sold by this name, and unfortunately I've never seen one sold as this that is actually suitable for a regular coldwater community tank, but if you can provide the above we can give more specific details to why .

It also depends whether by coldwater you mean true coldwater or room temperature....

i have two weather loaches so i can tell you about them, they eat flake food and although they do like to scavenge off the bottom they do swim to the top of the tank to get their fair share of food, they like cucumber as a treat and mix well with goldfish and sucker loaches. they are the only true coldwater loach as they can survive extreme coldwater tempratures and are very playful as they get bigger. mine are about 7 inches in legnth and have grown rapidly {doubled in size in six months} they grow about ten to twelve inches in size. if you find some buy a couple as they add interest to your tank.

That is absolutely horrid information to give to a newby, complete rubbish. It's irresponsible and very WRONG. There is nothing funny about it; and you shouldn't be giving information that is in all certainty, wrong, to a newb.

If a fish needs heat, then you must provide it to them or they will surely suffer. Just because a fish is alive does not mean that it is thriving, nor healthy.
