An assortment of colourful, and popular Goldfish varieties. This is a beautiful and often sought after mix of large show-stopping Comets, Sarasas, and Shubunkins.
There is an endless list of different varieties of Goldfish available. Common, Comet, and Shubunkin are the most common varieties suitable for both ponds and aquariums. Oranda, Fantail, Ryukin, Lionhead are amongst a long list of fancy types which are recommended for indoor aquariums only.
Goldfish are also found in quite a mix of colours too including gold, red, yellow, white, black, orange, silver and brown.
Consumer guidance:
Make sure you give Goldfish plenty of space in both ponds and aquariums. Being a coldwater fish, they require more oxygen so do not over stock these species. Stocking density is defined by the surface area (oxygen intake capability), not the total water volume.
Ponds:
• In outdoor ponds, (based on a correctly filtered set up) it is recommended that you do not stock more than 15cm of fish (not including the fish’s tail) per 1800cm² of surface area. With large fish, which consume more oxygen, we recommend that this figure is lower.
Aquariums:
• For indoor aquariums, it is advisable not stock more than 1cm of fish (excluding tail) per 60cm² water surface area of the aquarium. For example a 60 x 30cm aquarium should not contain any more than 30cm of Goldfish. Using this method will enhance the wellbeing of the fish and make the whole fish keeping experience easier and more enjoyable.
