Default Are goldfish content alone?

*Note: There are TWO "Koi-Lo's" on this NG*

I've always wondered whether goldfish are content alone or whether they
prefer to have other goldfish around. I'm trying to figure out how to
best house my shubunkins. Anybody know whether carp are shoaling?

=========================
In watching my GF I believe they would rather have company than be alone. In
the ponds and pools they hang around together in one or more small groups as
do the koi. They will wander off always from the group, but always go back.
I would never keep one GF by itself.
