I did not think that gold fish could live very long in such cold temperatures, and at 7,000 feet Tahoe is cold.

On a side note I hope they are not killing those as they would be worth quite a bit of money to aquarium owners.

If I’m not mistaken, goldfish are domesticated carp. That said, some varieties are rather spectacular. They have no place in Tahoe as they are a “dirty” fish unlike the trout.
