Can goldfish be kept in very large clear storage boxes because my fish currently in a tank is huge and i think it would be best to get a new one but could i buy a new storage box for him?

    Hi there

    By storage box I assume that you mean a plastic box. Is the fish too big for its current tank? In that case I think you should buy a new tank. The fish would probably survive in a plastic box given the conditions are the same as in the tank (same water temperature, oxygen supply, etc) but would only be a temporary solution. A glass tank is much better and safer for the fish.
