🐟 Red & White Fantail Goldfish (Carassius auratus)
A Crisp Red-and-White Body • An Elegant Flowing Double Tail • A Classic, Easy-Going Fancy Goldfish
📋 The Red & White Fantail Goldfish carries a crisp red-and-white body, with bold red patches over clean white, on a rounded, egg-shaped body with an elegant, flowing double tail that fans out gracefully as it swims. It's one of the oldest and most popular fancy goldfish, and this classic colour form is full of charm, with every pattern unique.
It's a captive-bred fancy goldfish, first developed in China. Every Red & White Fantail Goldfish we ship is feeding well.
This is a hardy, peaceful, friendly fish that glides gracefully around the tank and quickly learns to come to the front at feeding time. It's the perfect first fancy goldfish, thriving in a spacious aquarium with other fancy goldfish, and it grows up to 20cm, so a 100L tank suits it well.
