Coffee Bowl

Will my goldfish live in a bowl long enough?

I am not for goldfish, in fact, I usually raise only cichlids. I just bought two goldfish for my cousins but I made a fairly small bowl. Slightly smaller than a pot of coffee. I know all about ammonia and oxygen and eveything, but I do not have the money to buy a larger tank for another four days. Will live goldfish in the bowl long enough for me to give them a tank?

It is frankly very difficult to call. I heard people whose goldfish died during the night, and some who managed to keep them in a bowl for a year. It probably depends on the quality of care you give them during these four days than anything else. I keep them as little favor an environment as possible, away from people, other animals, and movement. Feed them sparingly - perhaps only once in four whole days? And just a partial change of water daily. Good luck!
