Is there any issues with mixing goldfish with silver perch? I can get 20ish goldfish that are roughly 7 - 15cm for free that im thinking of putting in my Silvers tank until im finished making a small system that my kids can see into and feed the goldfish (650l IBC with 300l GB on top). My SP's are only little 5 - 8cm... will the goldies 'rough em up'? |

I dont think so. I have 3 goldies with about 15-20 silver perches. They have no issues, the goldies are like part of the pack haha. But then again they are all the same size or roughly the same. |

Wouldn't matter what size the SPs are, they won't bother the goldies. |

Important thing is to feed the goldfish good food as well. I feed the goldfish the same feed for trout. Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk |
