About the goldfish do I have to feed them? I am planning a 10 day
vacation next month. To create a better eco system (if we could call
it that) should I add a piece of river rock or aqurium rock for algae
and beneficial bacteria to grow?

=========================
The beneficial algae will grow on everything under the water so adding a
rock wont matter that much. If you only have 2 small goldfish they may find
enough to eat for 10 days. I know mine wouldn't. We leave our fish for
long weekends but any longer than that and I have someone come over and feed
them at least every other day.
