At the beginning of this month, my 4 year olds youchien had a small festival with games and treats for the students. My kiddo came home with 2 live goldfish that he won with his dad while I was taking care of the toddler.
I have spent the last several weeks fighting to keep the fish alive. One unfortunately passed away about a day after he came home, but the second is a hardy little comet and so far he is doing pretty well.
I have never had fish, I've been asking questions on Reddit and reading as much as I can. I'm working on cycling the tank but it's just too small for even one little guy (20L). Despite daily water changes, bottled bacteria, ammonia absorbing rocks, live plants, etc it is just not the right environment (especially since he will grow pretty freaking big over time).
To cut to the chase, I was wondering if anyone with an established freshwater tank would be interested in rehoming our little guy. He needs a setup that will be healthy for him, and a barely cycled tank set up by a complete fish-noob isn't that.
Anyway if anyone had space, I'd love to send him to a nice home. We are in Shizuoka Prefecture. Thank you!
