It would be interesting to see if the fish developed any patterns to moving around the room, would it just continue to swim in random directions taking it where ever or would it learn to guide it's little mobile tank, and return to certain areas more than others because they interest it for some reason.

Install an air rifle at front and you have a fish tank with a whole new meaning. Also, really scary because you can't reason with a fish not to shoot at you. The less intelligent the species, the scarier they are with a weapon.

I always thought Goldfish had a 7 second memory. Wont it forget its way home?

#6 that's false. It's unclear if they mean long-term or short-term memory, or if the fish even have these concepts, but it's known that they retain spatial memory of their environment.

I am not so sure #7 I have just asked my Goldfish his views on the matter and he started to explain and then suddenly said. "Can you repeat the question?"
