My kiddo had been asking me to try to slowly acclimate goldfish to live in saltwater. I set up a nano tank and gave it a go. Happy to say they’ve fully transitioned and I’ll have some for sale soon if anyone’s interested.

Ill wait till the F2 generation as I'm sure they will be much a hardier. You are going to breed them correct ?
Of course! Hoping to get several color variations
 
Are you making sure they get enough oxygen?

Definitely need to take them out of the bag. I think they've temp acclimated long enough now!
