he is beautiful...I had some at one point in my life and they are like puppys, very friendly and will let you pet them.....unfortunately one at a time they all got that air sack unbalanced thing and died.....never did find out what causes that and I was wrecked everytime one died...

@scarypowers Well, i hope you did not get discourage about raising goldfishes. usually the cause of death is mixing fishes from different places or different times together.

ive had a pond fo 3 months now and i waited about 1 month before putting fish in and all of them died and i waited another 2 weeks and all the fish died could you help me?

[Steppen03]

@MASOMAN1AC what kind of pond ? what kind of fishes ? please email the details to my inbox and I will try to help you.

I love your fish, I also had a 4yrs old oranda that died recently, she was shiny grey and beautifull, but she was not so big as yours. Recently refealed my aquario and bought 2 orandas an orange and the other one is calico, but they are to small yet, althought the orange one is very clever and sociable.

Good luck for Samson!

@EricaFernandes

Do not add any more fishes to your tank.

Oh lord you guys... the fish is just in that bucket so you can see it! It lives in the main pond, but he wouldn't be able to make a very good video to show off the fish!

[joeotley]

@shasha8227  it's clearly only in the bucket for the video, you puppet.

@scarypowers Swimbladder disease in fancy goldfish like this is often due to feeding a dry fish flake only diet - the dry, cereal-rich flakes cause the fish to become constipated which makes their gut swell, and it pushes their swimbladder out of shape so they can't maintain boyancy. Try feeding a mixed diet of soft pellets, fresh bloodworm, daphnia and brine shrimp instead and you'll have much happier, healthy goldfish :-)
