Hey lupin you want some comet goldfish?

update on tank no pics. Got new fish. Big fish eat new fish. Disease spreads and 2 koi and 1 goldfish die. Tank much cleaner goldfish happier(i hope) no small fish EVER again.
 
These are my goldies - they are all commons, i have had them since july...
I am sorry the pics are blurry, but i only have a camera on my phone...
The goldies share their home with SAEs, garra sp and a guppy (this used to be a tropical tank and the guppy hid from me - she only reappeared 3 weeks after I already moved goldies in the tank! :) )

I could never keep red caps for a long time. Bought 1 years ago, died when the heater stuck on, no other deaths. Bought another few years back, made it probably a year, or year and half then died. Then bought my gf one for valentines day last year and it died 6 months later. If only they were as hardy as my 7yo calico fantail!
 
New baby tank (the plants are still in the filling in phase, they look terrible lol)

Just testing out my new camera. First time owning a DSLR, so I'm trying to find the right settings for aquarium photography (anyone have any ideal settings that work best?). Here's a few pics of some of my goldies. The others are camera shy and wouldn't pose long enough for me to get a good, clear shot lol. (some are of the same fish)

beautiful goldies !

Here's my new little calico oranda. Cute little bugger....can't wait for it to grow it's cap !

BBsteps....that's a nice batch you have and I agree with you....Zhen is a beaut ! Now that is the color that I would consider a "True" calico...as far as I'm concerned anyway. White with black and orange...just like the cats ! lol I'd love to find one like that myself.
