FAQs

Are Fancy Goldfish hard to keep?

Fancy goldfish are not particularly hard to keep, but they do require specific care beyond that of hardier fish species. Their unique body shapes make them slower swimmers and more prone to health issues like swim bladder problems. They need excellent water quality, a spacious tank, and regular maintenance, including water changes and tank cleaning, to thrive.

What is the difference between goldfish and fancy goldfish?

The main difference lies in their body shape and swimming ability: common goldfish have streamlined bodies and single tails, making them fast swimmers, while fancy goldfish have short, rounded bodies with double tails and swim more slowly. Fancy goldfish are more delicate and prone to health issues, whereas common goldfish are hardier. Additionally, fancy goldfish come in more varied and elaborate types compared to common goldfish.

What size tank do I need for 2 fancy goldfish?

For two fancy goldfish, a tank of at least 30 to 40 gallons is recommended, with 20 gallons for the first fish and 10 gallons for the second. A larger tank helps maintain stable water conditions and makes tank maintenance easier. A wide, low tank is preferable as it offers better swimming space and oxygen exchange.

Are fancy goldfish suitable for beginners?

Fancy goldfish can be suitable for beginners who are prepared to commit to regular tank maintenance and understand their special care needs. While they are more delicate than common goldfish and require attention to water quality and tank setup, with sufficient care they can be rewarding and manageable pets for novices.
