🐟 Calico Telescope Eye Goldfish (Carassius auratus)
A Vibrant Calico Patchwork of Colours • Big, Bold Protruding Telescope Eyes • A Colourful, Characterful Fancy Goldfish
📋 The Calico Telescope Eye Goldfish carries a vibrant calico patchwork of orange, red, white, blue and black, speckled with dark spots, along with big, bold eyes that protrude from either side of its head like a pair of telescopes. With its rounded body and flowing double tail, this colourful form of the Demekin is full of charm, and every calico is unique.
It's a captive-bred fancy goldfish, developed in China. Every Calico Telescope Eye Goldfish we ship is feeding well.
This is a gentle, peaceful fish that paddles happily around the tank and makes a delightful, characterful pet. It's best kept with other slow-moving fancy goldfish in a smooth, soft-decorated tank that protects its eyes, and it grows up to 15cm, so an 80L tank suits it well.
