New Aquarium Ranchu and Oranda Goldfish

[fizzwidget87]

Great looking fish :D I like the bare bottom look of the tank, i've never considered it before. What is the music?

[MAUKAKANE1]

Eraflo, Great tank and great fish! I prefer barebottoms as well. Tank too deep comment is hilarious! Why? will they drown!! LOL!!

[Eraflo]

@MAUKAKANE1 Thank you. The tank is a lot different now though, and I am also experimenting with a shallow layer of substrate. I'll put a new video soon.

nice fishes too much current and tank is too deep  ... goldfih dont like deep water and too much current either

[Eraflo]

Thanks. You are right about the current but look at my other videos, the fish are much bigger and have no problems with the current setup. As for the depth please link me a study that shows 1ft of water being too deep for a goldfish.

[jenruchito76]

[wanyusri84]

[ChelseaRangerBoy]

wow there amazing fish, i love your chocolate oranda and chocolate ranchu, iv'e got a black moor, 1 goldfish , 1 shubunkin and one redcap oranda and there all doing fine. i'm from england aswell and you a can get ranchu's from around lincolnshire.

[Eraflo]

Good to hear, thanks.

[geezezy]

Hi may I please ask how you put each fish into the tank, did you buy them all at once or one by one? I'm just scared of new fish bringing in new parasites thats all. Please reply thanks.

[Eraflo]

I had the Fantail first quite a while ago. I then had the largest Oranda and kept her with the Fantail and 2 common goldfish. The rest of the fancies were bought with the new tank and all introduced together. All of the fish are from the same shop.

[geezezy]

You've got a good aquarium going on there, whatever you do, quarantine any new fish you put in. I learnt the hard way with deadly pearlscales.

[Eraflo]

Thanks for the tip.

[laichaun78]

Wow Im from England too and I've been looking for a Ranchu goldfish for many months. Wherabouts in England can you get the one and only "Ranchu" goldfish. Can you please name the shop and location if possible. Thanks hope to hear from you.

[Eraflo]

I got it from a local pet shop mate. There are many that sell them around the West Midlands.

Hey i hav a another question for ya

Wen will my fish start growing a wen and how can i tell he is growing it???

also wat food would you suggest for me to feed him???

[speedyfish123]

where u buy ur fish? petsmart?.......

[Eraflo]

No, I'm from England. I got them from a local independent pet store.

[finchtheamazing]

wat do u feed them??? mine is not active very much any suggestions??

[Eraflo]

I feed them Kockney Koi superior mix 3mm pellets as a staple food. But they also have countless different types of veggies as well as prawns when I can.

As for your fish what type of fish do you have and what size tank?

[finchtheamazing]

i hav no other fish in with him and rite now he is in the 10g qt tank which he has been in for over 3 weeks now casue i can figure wat is wrong wit him

[Eraflo]

It sounds simple but perhaps if he has been on his own for 3 weeks he just needs some fishy company? If he has no health issues then introduce a friend see if he picks up

[Broeut]

tropical fish ftw :d used to have gold fish, but now they are in my pond

[Eraflo]

"tropical fish ftw"- Don't be silly.
