∙ 13y agoThe size of the tank affects the goldfish greatly! If you put too many goldfish in a small tank, the goldfish can suffocate from not having enough oxygen, even if the water is kept perfectly clean, for there is not enough oxygen in the small amount of water for the amoutn of goldfish in it. Goldfish need enough space to swim around and exercise too, and if you leave too many goldfish in a small tank, I believe they get stressed out.

How does a goldfish grow as a size of a foot when in seawater and still the same size when in a bowl?
Goldfish release growth-inhibiting hormones into the water they live in: the more goldfish in a smaller space, the less likely they are to grow. For instance, if I have a common goldfish in a 5 gallon tank, it will grow to about the same size if I had 6 of the same fish in a 30 gallon tank. But leave that fish alone in a 30 gallon tank, and it will grow larger. This is why pond goldfish grow bigger. But goldfish won't grow at all in seawater; they aren't saltwater fish.
