Read the paragraph and choose the correct idea:
Because goldfish can be kept easily in small ponds and aquariums, they are good pets, but like any
other pets, they must have good care and the right kind of place to live. A two-inch fish requires a

frequently. It is important not to overfeed goldfish. They can be fed such things as dried insects and
shrimps and commercial goldfish food, but they should never be fed more than once a day. Even then,
they should not be given too much food in five minutes.
