Goldfish tank problem?

Question

iv just recently put my goldfish into a tank, however i have not yet got an oxygenator for the tank, i do have a filter.....will my goldfish be ok overnight?

Answer 1

Yes overnight but get a filter in there as quick as you can otherwise it will start having difficulties.

You may not be able to see it but not putting a filter or oxygenator in the tank will shorten their life considerably and put stress on them.

IF THEY ARE GASPING AT THE TOP THEN YOU DEFINATELY NEED TO GET SOME OXYGEN IN THEY'RE QUICKLY!!

Also their gills might be looking like they are going ninety to the dozen because of lack of oxygen

Answer 2

they should be fine if theres a lot of water in there, you will probably see them floating near the top, but they will not be dead for a while, just keep changeing the water.

Answer 3

it'll be fine, dont worry the tank will be ok for quite awhile without an oxgenator. I only fitted one to mine last week and I've had the tank a year.
