I just bought 4 Black Moor goldfish from Walmart (I had to when I saw them:( there were dead ones caught in the filter behind them and an unnecessary vacation feeder at the bottom at the tank!). They are all the size of a Cory fish (maybe an inch long? A bit more?). 2 of the 4 didn't look so hot when I got them home, (they kept floating to the top and flipping on their sides.. The only reason I knew they weren't dead was because their mouths would move) but now that I've got them in my tank for over 24 hours, they all look much much healthier and happier:)

So I have them in a 15 gallon tank with one Cory fish and one 2inch Pleco fish.

Here's my real problem: I have another Black Moore, but he's a good size.. about 5 inches? 6? He's pretty chubby too:) I have moved him into my 5 gallon "hospital tank" but I know I can't keep him there.. He'll dirty it up to kingdom come!! But I'm worried that if I move him back into the 15 gallon he'll eat up the new ones!

I mean, the big guy is usually pretty slow and doesn't have the best eyesight (he had a popeye problem some time ago, so his left eye protrudes quite a bit from his head still) and I really doubt he would hurt a fly! I feed him just fine, too.

So.. Do you think it's safe to move the big guy back into the 15 gallon? Or should I move the four tiny ones into the 5 gallon if I do?

Thank you they'll appreciate it, I'm sure <3
Update: I forgot to mention, yes I will be upgrading to an appropriate size tank very very soon, but I was jut asking if my big fish will eat the smaller black moors for the time being.

I like watching old movies and shows

i just got done watching Captain N this weekend. lmao, old 80's cartoons.
Mega-man sounds like Popeye after eating some sandpaper.

will you pack up and move there? Now if you do have the means what is preventing you from moving to Africa?

This black guy told me if he had the money he would move to Africa.

They can even enjoy african movies. I hear that nigerian movies are selling like popeye's chicken. http://www.allafricanmovies.com/ <-------------check out the covers to the movies....high tech sh1t. how could you pass up those movies? and you won't even miss America with titles like MAMA-G IN AMERICA.

maybe if I explain a bit about what I'm like you'll change your minds.

It says.

Me.......on a scale of 1-100.....Rate me! Hahaa

The "top" does all the work.

The "bottom" does little ... kind of like 30 DOT supervisors watching one guy work on the side of the road.

Better "brother" POLL: Brother Bluto >OR< Brother D-Day?

... if you went outside and ate lawn grass, you'd become big and strong like when Popeye ate spinach?

Or was that just me?

mum to two ferals : I didn't ask my parents before coming to that conclusion.
