Super friendly Wakin Goldfish

[missmeliss]

Does anybody else have extremely friendly goldfish? Like I put my hand in the tank and they immediately swim over to me and rub against my hand like they wanted to be petted haha. They don't rub against anything in the tank, so it's not ich or anything. I've never had such friendly fish though lol. They even watch me in my office and swim up to the front of the glass to be entertained lol.

That's the entire reason I love goldfish - they're just full of personality.

For sure.

They're highly underrated and have a lot going for them IMO.

They're awesome! I never understood why people dismiss them as not "serious" fish. Plus, they'll teach you how to run a big tank, for sure. (See above thread with my water troubles. Ugh.)

Wakins are the most outgoing and friendly fish I grow.

Here are some of my outdoor raised fish from Japanese imported Maruu Wakins.

Someone brought a new goldfish into our office aquarium and it killed the one that already was there...
