I am quick-failing this article because large swaths of text are completely uncited (plus there's a citation needed tag). This is unacceptable for a Good Article nomination, and should have been dealt with prior to nomination. Other issues:

ref 6 is a non-functional link
refs 7,8 have no page number
the article states "The optimum temperature for goldfish is around 25°C/77°F." which is sourced to citation 9; however, the source does not say this.
the citations to web sites are not properly cited, and are little more than bare links
some of the web sources look very dubious, filled with ads and unrelated randomness (check #10, for example)
the prose in some sections is unencyclopedic and needs work
