CJ,
I too know nothing about Goldfish. That was the reason I was handing the theory that since GA is an idealized aquarium in the first place why not take a little creative license and make a more pleasing environment even if it perhaps stretches the bounds of nature just a little bit. Most folks like you and I only want something that is pleasing to look at any way. Your thoughts?

Diver, - I stand corrected! - Some very nice shades of red there. But are they suitable for cold-water tanks? - I have no experience of goldfish, but I always think of them as cold-water, - perhaps if the 'fancy' goldfish require higher temperatures, then any of the freshwater tropical plants would be suitable. But cold water may be more restrictive to the less exotic type of plants. ......... Can someone tell us?

But I do like some of those plants shown on the site you gave. Thanks!
