I have 2 goldfish in a round glass bowl. I would like to know if I can
put a spider plant in the goldfish bowl?

You can, but it won't live long. Spider plants are not aquatic
plants. Goldfish in bowls don't live too long either, with some
exceptions. It would be best to get them an aquarium.

Thanks for your information. I have 2 ten cent feeder fish I bought
about 4 years ago; and yes they are alive and well. I just keep getting
them a bigger bowl and they keep growing.

Thanks again!

Fish will grow their entire lives. I had a 10 cent feeder that my daughter
won during a Finding Nemo promotion in a 1 gallon Sponge Bob Squarepants
tank. That fish stayed small in the tank, but it's partner doubled in size.
When I moved the fish to a 50 gallon tank it stayed small for about 6 months
then suddenly had a growing spurt and quadrupled in size over the following
3 months. It became agressive and I traded it in.
