Well I ended up going to my local aquatic Centre. Was advised they are not tropical water fish so bought a 20 L tank pump and filter and they seem happy enough now. Also got some flake to feed them with! I will post a picture if anyone could help identify that would be great

When I first turned on the pump after a while I could see everything covered in little bubbles with in the tank. Then I played a round with the flow valve which made the whole thing a bit noisier so I reset it now there are no bubbles in the tank. Just a bit concerned that the fish have a enough oxygen?????

Yes, they are all just fancy goldfish, they are a bit more delicate and would really struggle outside with winter temperatures and competing for food, so keep them snug indoors. Some regular live food will help stop them turning into lop-sided dropsical floaters. But don't count on it. My personal opinion is that these 'fancy' breeds should be discouraged, they are cruelly deformed really.
Live food?????
