Goldfish's ability to adapt to water temperature is very strong, and the range of water temperature that can survive is 0-39 C. As long as the water temperature is not below 2 C, the goldfish will not be frozen to death. But when the water temperature is below 8 C, the metabolism of goldfish will slow down a lot, and it will become inactive, loss of appetite, and begin to dislike eating, and the body will be dull. Therefore, in order for goldfish to grow better, even in winter, the water temperature should not be lower than 8 C.

1. Will goldfish freeze to death

outdoors in winter? Goldfish have a strong ability to adapt to water temperature. In the extreme water temperature range of 0-39 C, goldfish can survive tenaciously. Whether goldfish will be frozen to death outdoors in winter depends on whether the local temperature will reduce the water temperature of the environment in which goldfish live to 0 degrees Celsius, which goldfish can not tolerate. For example, there is no heat preservation measures in the cold north, so there is almost no need to consider keeping goldfish outdoors in winter.

As we all know, the water temperature suitable for goldfish growth is 18-26 degrees Celsius. Only at this water temperature, the metabolism, appetite and excretion of goldfish are the most normal and vigorous. The color of goldfish is also more bright, and goldfish is the most ornamental. If the water temperature drops to 8 C, the goldfish will not like to move, do not like to eat, the color of the body is dim, and the ornamental value is seriously reduced. Therefore, even if goldfish will not be frozen to death outdoors in winter, the water temperature should not be lower than 8 degrees Celsius. If there is no way to ensure that the water temperature is above 8 ℃, when the water temperature drops to 2 ℃, the goldfish will begin to be in danger of freezing to death. When the water temperature reaches 0 ℃, the goldfish will be able to withstand the extreme low temperature, and it is easy to die. Therefore, the outdoor temperature in winter is too low, and the water temperature can not guarantee the normal survival of the goldfish, so it is better not to keep the goldfish outdoors in winter.
