Help! I just saved 3 large goldfish from my work party. They’re in a tiny bowl they can barely swim around in without hitting each other. I went to Petsmart and bought a 5.5 gal fish tank for them. I also bought some distilled water. How long do I need to let the tank run before I can put these poor fish into it? Any fish advise is would be very nice

I just set the tank up a week and a half ago. I am a first time fish owner. I actually got the fish that are in it with the tank from someone else. When I got it I had to take absolutely everything out of it and scrub it. With only water of course. It was covered in algae it was a quarter of an inch thick on absolutely everything. So I’ve been told that you should siphon out approx. 5 gallons but I forget how often. Thanks!
