My DD1 is desperate for a goldfish. I thought it would be the easiest pet option but after a few days googling I've realised that it's a really expensive outlay and goldfish keeping is haaaaard!
I read that guppies are a better first time option. So, any tips? Where's best to buy from? Can you have 2 males in a tank? (don't feel equipped to deal with babies - what do you do with them all?!) Males are preferred as they're more colourful. Or is it more fun to have a mix (read that the males chase the females - is this cool to watch?)
As an aside, I want to apologise to any goldfish I owned in the past. I am so sorry. I had NO idea how to look after you.
