Compatibility
A peaceful goldfish. Has trouble competing for food. Should be kept with other Celestial Eye or Bubble Eye goldfish.
Habitat
China: Moderately decorated with rocks, plastic plants and driftwood. Decorations should not have any sharp points on them, otherwise they could injure their eyes.
Breeding
During the spawning season the male will have tubercles (small white dots, not to be confused with the disease ich) on their head, pectoral fins and gill covers. Thousands of eggs are produced and the parents are veracious egg eaters and must be removed immediately after spawning.
Additional Comments
Very similar to the Ryukin and Fantail, but the eyes are turned up. The eyes start out normal and move as the fish matures. Rather delicate and sensitive to the cold. Average life span is 6-7 years.
