Assorted Fancy Goldfish by PASS Aquatics & Reptiles
Fancy Goldfish typically stay a little smaller in size, but a larger tank should still be considered. Goldfish are a social species and need to be kept in a minimum of 2. A good tank size is 100l for 3-4 Goldfish with good filtration.
Fancy Goldfish may have problems swimming strongly due to larger fins, so care must be taken with providing areas for them to rest but not get stuck.
Available varieties include Orandas, Ranchus, Moors, Ryukins, and Pearlsales.

Received a mix of Orandas and Ryukins. The fish are active and colorful. I kept them in a 100L tank with good filtration. They seem healthy and enjoy the space. The variety adds visual interest to the tank.

Got a small group of Moors and Pearlsales. They are peaceful and stay together well. I made sure to include hiding spots since their large fins make them prone to getting stuck.

The assortment is well balanced. My Ranchus and Orandas are thriving. I noticed they rest in corners and avoid strong currents. The tank setup has improved with added plants and resting zones.
