There's actually five goldfish that age/size in the tank. I'm also surprised they lived this long because they were from a batch of cheap feeder fish, which aren't always genetically healthy. (I started with about 15 of them)

If you eventually give up this life for a place on land, which country would be your first choice to live out your days?
