Looking for tank companion...whats best??or nice?

Question

i have one large black moor....he is used to having tank companions, but alas,his last friend died last night. so whats cool for my "little" guy?

1)the size of my tank doesnt matter [easily fixed]

2) i didnt exaggerate large...he is well beyond a healthy boy

3) i looked at plecos, and i really liked this golden nugget pleco, but holy cow too much $$$....so yea...[40$]

Answer 1

Plecos are every messy but so are gold fish so if you want a pleco make sure you have a good filter and do regular tank cleanings like vacume.

Gold fish do best with other goldfish.  I would get another fancy gold fish.

Answer 2

Black Moor, as in Goldfish? They aren't compatible with much of anyone (other than themselves) except a Loach or Plecostomus (or Koi).

Answer 3

Do a google search on COLDWATER fish. Most minnows should be ok (as long as they're big enough to avoid being gobbled up). Other goldfish of similar body shape should be ok as well.

Answer 4

Goldfish should only be housed with other goldfish.  Plecos are tropical and despite how some petstores keep them they should not be housed with goldfish.  

2 fancy goldfish should be kept in at least a 29 gal tank.   A larger goldfish shouldn't be to hard to find if you want a fish of similar size as people are often looking to rehome them when they get too big
