Proof of the goldfish's monsterness.
I'd be Pissed if a Goldfish beat me out of a prize at a fishing COmp!!!! :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:
 
Some of those large golds are pretty impressive!!!
 
I used to not be a fan at all of goldfish, but this past winter I saw ones that have been moved indoors for the winter, and in a tank at large sizes, they are very impressive imo.
 
here's a goldfish that I had a year. He grew to 8" in a year. Yes I did powerfeed him, but hey I was curious as to how big one could get in a year.:popcorn: Unfortunately I never got pics when he was 8" this is when he was 6". I am sure that you could grow one massive with a proper feeding schedule. I put an auto feeder on his tank he got food 2 times per day.

Large goldfish are the same price as some (imo) much more interesting other fish....
 
i never liked goldfish but my gf wanted to put some in a tank I made in our bedpost.
Not a monster tank, but i like it, they are big, colorful and active. And the tank is mostly for show :)
Here are two of them in my 200G waiting to be moved:



And in the tank, ~5feet long. Just common goldfish, dont like the other forms:




 
I have a goldfish tank...I actually love watching it. Many various colors. They are under appreciated. Mine arent all big yet, ( biggest is 4") but they will be! I have a few cories as well and I'm adding some weather loaches as well. Moving them to a bigger tank this weekend.
