    It should be fine until they get some more size to them. Then you'll need a bigger tank or ditch some fish.

        Gold fish can get very large. So they will out grow the 40g tank. Also at that size. You wont need to ditch the neons. The gold fish will start eating them. ( Big Fish Eat Little Fish) But Gold fish grow slow. So they should be fine for some time...

                  a bit expensive imo... like 14 bucks I think, Aquarium world is always a bit more expensive =x... but it's closer to me

                    Dang... But then again its pandas. People like to jack up the price on pandas. Xtreme has some normal pandas for 7.99

                        yeah... hehe... but going to extreme from my house and back will cost me about the same to get the fish, beltway fee and premium gas. lol. That's why I often go to Aquarium World. Man... I wish someone would open a store like extreme up north.

                          this one has pretty nice shade, body is fully white, telescope eyes and tails/fins are all black. still very juvenile though only 1 inch, smallest of the batch, you can still see through part of his pink gill because he's so juvy....

                              He's getting used to the tank today and starts to come out. I'll just grow them in this tank and will upgrade to a 70 gallon in near future.
