Hey everyone i just added a Pearl Goldfish to my 10g, as it grows ill put it into a larger tank, She is multi colored and has a unique gold, not orange, but gold cirlce on her stomach. In case any of you'll never seen a pearl goldfish they have a rather large stomach, kinda looks like their pregnat. The grwo to be 12'' head to tail, mine is only abut 2''. and when their full grown it'll look like a baseball with fins. Out of all the goldfish ive ever seen, this is the most different. expensive too, 8 bucks!! Anyone else have a Pearl Bellied Goldfish :D
 
Sounds like a nice fish. :) I haven't had any pearl goldfish before, but I've had other fancy varieties.

Be sure to get your goldfish into a larger tank as soon as possible. It might not seem like big deal to keep a 2" goldfish in a 10 gallon, but the fish's growth will be stunted very quickly, and sometimes unnoticeably, so upgrade as soon as possible.
 
Do you mean a Pearlscale goldfish, they only get to about 8 inches, is yours crowned or not, i have had a few and they are hilarious to watch when they swim
