Question by lina inverse: What’s the easiest fish for my aquarium (low maintenance)?
I merely sadly lost our goldfish (koi?) and shortly thereafter our algae eater was also lost. we had these for several years. like at least 5 maybe more. it’s a freshwater tank and i don’t have alot of time for maintenance. I’m not sure why these last fish died after so many years, should I replace them with the same (goldfish & algae eater) or could you recommend something else. Our climate is warm, so the tank temperature is not a major issue. It’s a 30 gallon tank.

Gold fish generally lonesome live a minimum of 5 years, that’s very good! I would recomend a goldfish, algea eater, of siamese fighting fish (Betta).
