goldfish?? they should be fine, only disease kills them ime
nup - ours used to eat each other...
so after several golfidsh, we just stopped and gave the tank etc away.
This was quite some years ago.
NO idea why, we did everything you're meant to ... and have succesfully had goldfish etc before... ?

btw in Feng Shui apparently any misfortune that befalls your goldfish is a blessing in disguise, because the fish took what would have otherwise befallen the occupants.
So the saying goes anyway. Hate to think what was coming to our house with our goldfish eating each other!

also wanted to add - when it's cold fish tend to slow down. so you might notice less activity when it's colder. Bert used to live in a pot outside. I can't believe he's still alive tbh LOL

That's 'cause the Puratap takes the nasty chlorine out so no water ager needed. Your goldfish are practically getting crystal clear mountain stream water

I used to wrap a towel around my goldfish bowl if it was particularly cold after I found a couple floating on top because the poor things had died .
