Saltgator, I have kept Goldens on and off for a very long time. Back in the early 90's I was actually at the wholesaler at LAX when the first Goldens for the hobby came into the country. They have always caught my eye. However, in my experience they are one of the shyest fish in my tank. I have had a couple that will go months without being seen. The pair I have now are very different, one is a very dark rusty color and the second one I added is very red. I have not seen them "paired up". At the moment I am spending alot of time in front of the tank with the lights off and I see the goldens out and about during the day. But neither (and none that I have had in the past) ever takes food I put in the tank. They are clearly pickers (in my experience).
And the strange thing is I have talked friends into getting this fish and in their tanks they swim out and about in the water column.
