🐟 Assorted Ryukin Goldfish (Carassius auratus)
A Bold, High-Arched Back • A Deep, Rounded Body • A Long, Flowing Double Tail
📋 The Ryukin Goldfish is instantly recognisable by its bold, high-arched hump rising behind the head, a deep, rounded body and a long, flowing double tail that sweeps behind it as it swims. It's one of the most striking and robust fancy goldfish, combining a dramatic profile with a hardy nature. Our assorted selection brings a mix of colours, from red and orange to calico, white and red-and-white, so every fish is unique.
It's a captive-bred fancy goldfish, developed in China and Japan. Every Assorted Ryukin Goldfish we ship is feeding well.
This is a lively, friendly, peaceful fish that glides gracefully around the tank and quickly learns to come to the front at feeding time. It's one of the hardiest fancy goldfish, thriving in a spacious aquarium with other fancy goldfish, and it grows up to 20cm, so a 100L tank suits it well.
