Woo hoo! Divine beauties!

Some of the most unusual and STUNNING fish I've ever laid eyes on!! :clap:
Nice find!
 
What's the deal with the one that looks like it has wings on its back?
I looked over them a few times, and I not sure what you're seeing. Possibly the elongated dorsal fin? Or the fan tail?

I'm a bit torn when I see fish like this, and I can see in the comments on that page that I'm not the only one. They are beautifully bred for the features aquarists are clamoring for. Goldfish are a result of this in the first place, and fancy breeds more so. Is there something unethical about pushing the physical characteristics to the point of near immobility? I suppose as long as they are pretty to look at, there will be somebody who answers that question by opening their wallet.
