Hi, i have two common goldfish and today i got two shubunkins. Since I got them one of the new shubunkins is being chased by my female goldfish. i dont know why its happening and she hasn't left the shubunkin alone except for when they are fed. Im worried she is going to hurt the new fish. can you help??!!

Are you sure the one doing the chasing is female? If it's really male, then it's common for male goldfish to chase new fish, especially females. Females can also chase new fish just to show them who is boss! There's not much you can do about it but separate them. As long as the new fish aren't physically hurt, you can keep them together. They should settle down in a few days.
