Hi everyone smile.gif

Im looking into getting a new fish. Ive seen a huge version of is and it looks really cool. Like some ancient fish. I have no idea what the name so its hard to find care advice for the type of goldfish. It looks like a fantail. But its got splotches of orange white and black all over its body. Do any of you know what kind of goldfish I'm talking about?

Calico Fantail maybe. Without a picture cant really tell you for sure.

Try Koko's List of Goldfish Types and see which one looks like your description.

a similar pic of the goldfish of your description will do fine if you dont have actual fish.

it looks like a fantail but the color is like the goldfish on the left. theres nothing really special about this fantail the only thing is its mix of colors.

Sounds like a calico fantail. The ones with lots of orange pigmentation are really cute. smile.gif

thanks Nenn smile.gif

is it pronounced "Cali co" or "Calii co"?
MidnightClyde
Cal i co

'Cal' like 'California'
the 'i' is the same sound as in 'fish' or 'hiccup'
'co' as in 'cope' or 'coach'
