got two new goldfish today!!!!

[DooSPX]

We got a beautiful Shubunkin (true Shu, not a breed from comets) Super long tail. He has a blue back from head to tail under his spots of calico colors. about 3-4" I would say. Then we also got a true comet, not a cross between common and comet with a really long flowing fins. He is about 5-6". I know for a fact that he is a male because he has those white dots on the gill covers like flarringshutter showed in sexing goldfish.
I also think that the Shu is a female because our male comet is all over her. bumping her, rubbing against her swimming, swimming in circles around her.

They are the small Sarasa (2-3") and the small common (2-3") new friends. AND, they actually like each other. playing around, its great to watch.

Definitely! Let's see some photos. They sound lovely. Did you buy them from a breeder?

our LFS is one of the best. They got them from a breeder. The breeder raises them in a pond for a year or so, then sells to him.

very neat fish you got there

 

[DooSPX]

Thank you! today we are going to try to get some better pictures of the fish.
maybe during feeding time because most of the time Dash, Shimi and Butterscotch are normally in the wall of bubbles and in the plants. They LOVE playing in the plants and the bubbles. I hardly see those three.
