What fish should I add to my existing goldfish? * N6 Q" U. s4 I$ j, RI did not plan to have the least-expensive goldfish in my tank, but for the purpose of testing my water, I bought 5 of them. They have been doing very well. I do not think it ok to throw them away live. Then when I add fish, I have to consider what fish can live along with them.
