    Stolas and Bobithey!

    On Nov 6, 2024, My order three(now 2) goldfish to grow out. The left specimen is an all 3 inch black Comet named Stolas, and the one on the right is a 1 inch Shubunkin a friend of mine's child named Bobithey. The plan is to grow them out a bit before rehoming them. But that could change...

    shubunkin is sitting at the bottom of tank

    Hi everyone, My shubunkin goldfish has swim bladder. I’ve read a lot about treatments and solutions already. How would you feed him if he doesn’t eat the peas? Would you hold him out of the waters and force feed? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

    Help me to confirm the goldfish breed

    Comet Golds & Shubunkin Koi

    SUPER excited! My husband and I just set up a 20 gallon tank for some juvenile Comet goldfish & Shubunkin Koi (once they are larger we will move them to our pond) This is our fish experience with Koi, and we have little experience with fancy goldfish. We already love them so much! They are all...
