Hi David,

I'm new here but I'm going to jump right in. Your problem is you
strarted with to many fish. A ten gallon tank is small and goldfish
produce a lot of waste. One gold fish would have been more appropriate.


Here are some tips for cycling your tank.

1. Be patient! It can sometimes take up to 8 weeks for a tank to cycle.
2. Do not overfeed. Looks like your already on the right track here.
3. Do NOT do any water changes until the tank is fully cycled.

One last comment, goldfish are really a hit of miss. This includes the
fancy tails as well as the common feeder. Sometime they live forever,
sometimes they die right off.
