Hi everyone, I have a large goldfish... of the type known as 'ordinary' or 'common' goldfish (see picture). She (I call her 'she' but who knows?) is about 5 years old and this type of goldfish can live to 20+.

I've got her in a tank with 2 smaller comet goldfish... and I really think at her size she needs a pond!

She is about 14 cm long. 

I don't want to get a bigger tank... I've already done that once and she just grew bigger (the so-called 'myth' that goldfish grow to fit their surroundings is not a myth at all).

I think this would be the perfect time of year to re-home her into a pond, while weather is still warm so she can acclimatise. 

I am disabled and unable to bring the fish to you... but I live just off Station Rd in Wood Green & there is parking. 

If some kind fish-loving person with a pond would like to give poor Hilda the home she deserves, please let me know. 

Thank you.
