Why My Goldfish Tank Looks Empty (On Purpose)

A beautiful planted tank with Buddha heads and gravel looks stunning…
But is it really good for your goldfish?

In this video, I’ll explain why *I choose a bare tank* after years of keeping ranchu and other fancy goldfish — and why many experienced Chinese keepers do the same.

We’ll cover:
– The hidden dangers of gravel
– Why goldfish and live plants don’t mix
– How sharp rocks can harm your fish
– Safer ways to decorate your tank with a minimalist aesthetic

🎯 They are not wild fish. They’re living art.
Let’s give them the space they deserve.
