Mr. RC Oranda's antics and the bodacious Ms. Pearl Scale. He is losing his scales and I don't know whats going on....is it an injury, bullying from Ms. Pearl or an illness? Is this normal? He's a funny lil' fella. ****update 5/2011: Unfortunately I lost my Red cap to swim bladder a few months ago. I just added two more red caps to join the pearlscale and they all seem to be doing fine. I'm gonna upload new videos soon.

  • Poor guy. :( Sorry you lost him. Usually that kind of activity is swim-bladder related, or could be problems with the fish understanding how to orient itself properly right-side-up. Brain tumors and swim bladder infections/growth problems are common with fancy goldfish. I have a red cap named Ichi who is a total clown.

  • @KillKyleWeiss Thanks...I do think it was swim-bladder....unfortunately I think I realized that too late and there was nothing I could do in the final days. I tried the remedies I found for swim-bladder but to no avail.

  • I absalutely love this vidio and red caps :'(

  • @TriskaidekaPunk Sorry for your loss as well...I had no clue a snail could do that. I want to look for a companion for my pearlscale, but I haven't found one I like. I'm pretty picky, it pretty much has to be love at first sight when I chose a pet. Eventually I will find one :)

  • @1SugarSpunHun i think these are the corkiest fish every though.... they have red and black ones at my PetSmart i so want one they help ich and snail parasite infection tanks. Sorry for the loss, my snail ate my two marigolds i was sad :(

  • @zakartaz Thank u.

  • @1SugarSpunHun sorry.

  • Just a note to say: the red cap passed away last month :(

  • im not a fish expert but there is something most def wrong with the red cap...

  • how old is that red cap ???
