Goldfish photos

[Brad Brents]

Hey, guys! I'm fairly new to the hobby and figured I might as well post my tank here. They were in a 40 until this weekend, where they are now in an 80. I plan on getting more to fill out the tank! If you have any suggestions, feel free to leave them.

Recently rescued a goldfish from some girl in my history class. She had the poor thing in a 1/2 gallon tank. He's hanging out in Qt till I find him a permanent home

Hey everyone. Hope I did this right. Here's a pic of my three Goldie's and the Grecian urn I bought for them today.

Here are some pictures of my pond fish. There are 18 goldfish, a mixture of shubunkins, comets and commons


This is a picture I took of my ranchu, Mango while I was moving him around

This is the fantail goldfish we got for our daughter. She named it Liliana after herself. lol Haven't actually sexed the fishy, but he/she is pretty active. Has a fin tear and has been a little champ going through a fish-in tank cycling. We added a snail and 5 ghost shrimp to the tank and she's leaving them alone for now. I think. I can only find 4 of the shrimp at one time, so one might have become a snack. She also goes crazy for brine shrimp!

Enjoy!!

My bunch of ryukins, ryukin fantail hybrids (pet store rescue so unsure of breed), tricolor Moors, oranda, pearl scales and ranchus

Likes: eating, redecorating, munching on plants, stealing my pleco Louis' wafers
Dislikes: not eating

I have 23 goldfish. 21 of them are singletails in my 1600 gallon pond and 2 of them are fancies in my 200 gallon pond. I also have loads of singletail babies.

My fancies are Mango and Coconut. Mango and a ranchu goldfish and Coconut is a pinky matt fantail. Mango is more friendly than Coconut but neither are scared of me. They are a lot easier to catch than my singletails! The other day I just put my hand in and scooped up Mango to take some pictures. They live in a pond with lots of plants and frogs. I have not had them very long and they are just young. Small and cute little guys. I got them on the 17th of June. When the weather gets colder they'll be brought inside.

I'll edit this with more pictures later

I have 4 Ryukins. And 2 smelly FEEDER Comets.

Sara and Maybelle a couple days after coming home 7½ months ago. Maybelle had the distinctive black markings.

Here they are about three weeks ago. Maybelle lost all those markings and Sara turned yellow and white. Maybelle is still a little larger but Sara has almost caught up.

I hoped for two females but had no idea of their actual gender. Still don't. Can anybody tell? I've always thought Maybelle might have been more aptly named. A.P.

Heres a few of my little ones

I am trying out a dirt bottomed environment. I have heard mixed things and want to see for myself. These little babies will be helping. Got them yesterday from Walmart

Rangli- brown shub
Uru- red shub
Kosmos- fan tail

This is Gladiolus. I believe he's a Yuan Bao Oranda. I love short bodied goldfish more than anything else in the world lol

My granddaughters first fancy goldfish...

Requires very little care since she painted it on a rock lol!

My goldfish Squirtle and Killer Whale

 

[mrsP]

My trio. Edit: they are quite small, just 2-3 inches without tail. And yes, that is hair algae on the left on plants. They are like cows, grazing on algae most of the time. There's lot to eat...

Voodoo is a fantail he loves cucumbers and my calico cat loves to watch him too lol.

My goldies❤ I've had my orange oranda Leo and the telescope Ella for 1 year now. I got two new ryukins Pearl the white one and the orange and white I haven't named. Once Leo and Ella saw me taking pictures they did a little posing and begging at the front of the tank

This is Khonsu, very photogenic he is.

That’s right guys, this is the “cutest goldfish” photo board. When your goldfish is so cute that you can’t bear it alone, so you must share them with the world.

This is Mosiah (or just Mosie), the blue oranda and the star of the show who gets all the attention, with her sidekick, Vesper (the little blackie in the corner).




If you have cute goldfish that you feel should be shared, post them here!

I love seeing other people's fish, especially their water pigs. So I figured I should make a thread where we can all share our goldfish and their tank setups. Both common and fancy goldfish are welcome here.
Please don't criticize other people's tanks or fishy friends!
I'll start. I have two fancy goldfish in a 40 gallon breeder. My black and yellow Ranchu girl is named Enzo (after the dog in The Art of Racing in the Rain) and my orange and white baby pearlscale boy is named Pigwidgeon (after Ron's owl in Harry Potter).

My two babes. White and orange is Frenchie(from Grease) and Bruce is Black and orange(the Batman of course). 3 months old about in the pic. They've nearly doubled in size and month since I got them. Not quite an inch at the moment if I had to guess. And I have added a few more fast growing plants since the picture was taken(and I hope they continue to eat the algae and ignore the plants).

I love the harry potter reference! One of mine has a HP name, Francis. You win my undying love if you get it lol.

My granddaughter left her goldfish (Luisa) with me and I’ve been trying to learn how to take care of fish ever since. I’d like to get a companion for her. I bought the tank secondhand and was told it was 29 gallon, but found out that it’s only 18. I hope that would be adequate for two small goldfish until they grow bigger.

Looks like a 20 gallon long tank (which probably holds about 18 gallons). He’s a very cute little guy! Since he looks like a comet goldfish, he will probably need quite a large tank when he grows up (40-50), but it looks like you are doing a good job with him for now!



How are goldfish so cute? It still leaves me oooing and awing every time I look at them.

Got a new fancy goldfish last weekend, he's a little orange oranda (maybe 4 inches with his tail) named Algernon.

My 3 1/2 year old Goldfish.

He looks somewhat like mine! How big is he?

 

[Frisbee]

I have a baby black Ranchu on hold at the LFS. I’ll post pictures of him when I pick him up tomorrow.

Edit: Here he is! Name ideas anyone?

Another picture of the my new little chubby bean after he’s settled in a bit. He’s so cute.

I had accidental goldfish spawn last winter, and I kept these 2.they don't have names, but one has slight deformation on Gill cover, and second lost upper lip and is slowly growing it back. They are runts of the litter, only 5cm in hight and 8cm from nose to fin, fin not included. Love them anyway.
