Not a troll. Look up the definition of a troll. I've been in this group
for years. So I don't care about goldfish, whoopy do. I have friends who
feed them to their larger fish. However I do have a 7" oranda who is doing
wonderfully in a 20 gallon community tank of a few smaller fish. Though
pretty, they don't have any intelligence to speak of. I read somewhere that
goldfish in general have a 5 second memory. Oh boy.

Ok, so you don't care about Goldfish. That's obvious. We all have our
personal likes and dislikes when it comes to particular species of
fish. However, just because a person doesn't give a hoot about one
species doesn't mean it's right to give false, or cruel "advice" about
their care or any general information regarding said species,
especially when the person dishing it out doesn't have a clue what
they're talking about.
I personally don't care for Goldfish. However, I would never give out
false or cruel info on them.
This is the point myself, and others are trying to convey to you.
There wasn't any need to get nasty when you were told the "info" you
gave out was completely wrong.
Instead, you should have learned something and moved on.
The comment about your friends who feed common Goldfish to their larger
fish was meant to do what?
Of course I know they are often used as feeders. That wasn't the point.
The point of all of this was that you told somebody common feeder
Goldfish only grow to 1 1/2" to 2" and don't get as large as the fancy
goldies.
Sheesh!
It makes no difference that you don't care about Goldfish, or if your
friends feed them to larger fish, or how stupid you think Goldies are.
It's about false, incorrect information you gave out. You were
corrected. You should have taken that as a lesson and learned something
from it.
