Please don't buy a 21 ltr tank! That's nowhere near big enough for a pair of fancy goldfish - they need around 40 ltrs each, which means you need a bare minimum of 80 ltrs for two of them. I know it sounds like alot, but goldfish grow big and they grow big fast!

If you don't want to spend too much, Clear Seal tanks are pretty inexpensive. You don't get stuff like a filter or lighting with it, but I got a 90 ltr one for £30 from pets @ home.
