@z1zato its called a wen. i think that's how you spell it. it dosent harm them or anything. this species of goldfish grows them. they can be big or small based on their genes and their health. you want an oranda with a big one cause it makes them more valuable and cool. their really awsome fish. like they will eat out of your hand and kiss you when your working in the tank!
I have an Oranda . I bought it last April . Everything was okay until a 2 months back . It has this bubble-like thing under its left eye and the front portion webbed-like dorsal fin is disappearing . I bought a medicine called "internal Bacteria & Ulcer away" but it doesn't seem to go away . Help ? :(
May you please go to my channel and check my video out to see if you can help my fish and I? I don't know if it has dropsy, is chubby, or is going to lay eggs. Please help! Anyone? Thanks you!
@BennyTheDirector Wen, alternate name for lipoma, a benign tumor composed of adipose tissue.
A subject I dont like arguing about, basically these fish have been bred to grow this way. Its essentially a tumor that does no real harm but in my opinion Its wrong, Its a mutation, its cruel. If fish could scream ...
All goldfish are relatives of Carp, and naturally look brown in the 'wild', captivity created colour changes, inter-breeding created monsters, beautiful as they are.
i used to have a fish like this one i miss him or her it was such a beautiful and unique looking fish from the rest in our aquriums and such peaceful as well
What a cute little puppy he was. <3 I bet he´s big now. Orandas are so charming and friendly. It´s such a shame that they always seem to have swim-bladder issues later on. Probably due to breeding them to this uneconomical shape . But sooooo cute. My first red cap reached only 2 years and then died of some infection. :-( All the best fr your fishies.
he is so hansome he is just a hunka hunka burning love I would date that fishy only thing seperates us from dateing is he is a fish and I am just only human. :-)but maybe if me and him mated then I would have some little mermaid babies.
@snotbog1 They are a little over a year old. I've started feeding them home-made gelatin/veggie food supplemented with a little krill meal and the yellow discoloration is almost completely disappeared just in these two weeks or so.
The food I was feeding them was aggressive color enhancing food for orange and red goldfish. Not good for white fish, I imagine. They are otherwise healthy, happy, active little guys.
He lived a couple of years but was attacked with diseased when I added fish a few months back. He will be missed. Most of my other fish are alive and well.
in petco , wow he is lucky you rescate him from that terrible store , i dont know but why some " animal protection department " or something gives a fine to thats stores for the bad conditions they have the fishes , and they have even sick fishes to the public eye
What a little cutie! He reminds me of Casper the Friendly Ghost. <:)
