Hello Jennie.
Thank you for your
comments about your
Goldfish. I am surprised
that your fish get along
well together.
Your
Golden Orfe is a hybrid
between a Goldfish and a
Koi, and an Orfe will
often nip on Goldfish.
The
Orfe, Normal Goldfish,
Comet, and Shubunkin are
all in what we call
Group 1. The Fantail and
Black Moor are in Group
2, and the Lion Head is
in Group 3.
Click
here
for more information
about these three
groups, which usually do
not do well together,
because the fish in
Group 1 pick on the fish
in Groups 2 and 3, and
the fish in Group will
often pick on the fish
in Group 3.
But
your fish may be milder.
Also a bigger aquarium
helps reduce the
aggression, and so does
frequent feeding with
good food.
But we
have discovered that
most times these three
groups of fish should
not be mixed, so keep a
close eye on yours to
see if there is any
bullying or nipping by
the more aggressive
fish.
Thanks
again for your comments. |
