and here are my fishes from the left we have Stalin, Motoko(pleco),Tamoe Ame(above), Guilt, Mussolini, Chi, and Hitler Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini are the brothers that look alike. It would be funny if they turned out to be girls...I hope I can raise them long enough to find out. eek

sweatdrop your tank is a bit over stocked. and plecos are tropical fish(warm water) where as goldies are cold water so they really shouldn't be housed together. here is a link to a really good goldfish care sheet .
. they really need more space than people think. at least and i mean least 20 gallons per goldfish. and the pleco will need a larger tank eventually as well.
other than your stocking situation its a really nice tank set up you have there biggrin

THanks for the comment. I was thinking of putting one or a few in some of the outdoor ponds we have around my house. I'm guessing a pond thats self feeding with a food regulated population in the full sun and a lotus wouldn't make a good home?
other thoughts.......
1)I have a 55 gal on the side(actually outside upside down) to set up when I get a propper place to put it and if I can filter and light it.
2)doesn't anyone have a comment on the names of my fish?... no?.... sweatdropredface

a pond would be perfect for your goldies ^__^ and i did notice the names ^__^ clever and cute ^__^
Cool names. I'd say to get those goldies into a pond and set up that 55g for the Pleco. All those fish have the potential to get 2 feet long or more. You could even keep something cool in the tank with the pleco. Anything from a large school of smaller tetras, danios or rasboras to something bigger like Cichlids or something. smile

Alright.... I bet the owner knows that. There is no need to enforce it... ninja
