Would another less polluting smaller type of fish be a suitable companion if all I can fit is a 10 gallon tank???
< Your goldfish will eventually get too big for this little tank. They really get big. I think a much better choice would be a small school of six white cloud minnows. They don't get big, are very easy to care for and are inexpensive.> Finally, if poor Tom does not survive (and I am planning to do my best to keep him happy and alive) please could you recommend some smaller fishes that may be better suited to my 6 litre tank with the best set-up possible for them. < See above.> I think that is it. I’d appreciate a quick answer, as I’d hate to think that I am doing anything else stupid that will kill Tom and I don’t trust the Petshop guy now. < So far so good. You are asking all the right questions.
