Should goldfish only be kept in ponds?

by MegRuth

I have one ryukin goldfish in a 29 gallon tank and I've read in places that it's cruel to keep them in tanks and that they belong in ponds. What do you think?

Fancy goldfish (Like yours) no. Comets definately belong in ponds

Cute fish! I agree with alasse. Just remember that goldfish prefer cooler temps than tropical fish.
