Show us YOUR goldfish! (A photo thread)

[kelly82]

i miss my goldies so much its unreal, but i will have to hold off til the girls are older, as my plan is for a large above ground pond on the patio, and at the moment they are too young to play out so they use the patio a lot with their bikes and scooters...only a few more years! beautiful fish and gorgeous set-ups everybody.

Here are a few pics of my new goldies. They are bad pics because I have only had them a few days, and they are still scared of me Once they calm down and recognize me as the "food lady" they will go in my patio pond.

Pretty calico comet

Hiding from me

If you look close, you can see my other two calico comets, bottom right.

Minimally top marked fish are my favorites for ponds

Hiding... AGAIN.

Sneaking out to nab some bloodworms

Another calico

Both minimals

AND the two fantail comets

Just a note: the white "specks" in many of the photos are air bubbles from the filter output.

Here are two of the gang-- Bogart and Casper. It's the remains of calcium dust of Casper's tail, nothing worse.

Somervell, that little moor has the most enormous eyes and longest tail I have ever seen. Absolutely adorable.

Here's my personal favorite.

I need a name though!

Kyryah, that little moor is rather unusual in that he has more of a tosa-style tail, with the lobes joined along the upper edge. It's not standard for a moor, but he'd be an ideal candidate for a tosa/moor cross! ...i know, i shouldn't be saying that. I'm a bad influence, hahah!
I'm interested to see a sideview of him.

And paris, your little oranda is just so cute. You could be lucky - some orandas do keep that black coloration into adulthood. Just don't go naming him Midnight or Shadow - you might jinx it!
