Their contrasting black-and-white patterns make them truly stand out, adding a sophisticated touch to any aquascape. These fish are peaceful and ideal for both beginner and experienced aquarists alike.
Care:
Panda Oranda Goldfish require a spacious tank to accommodate their growing size and flowing fins. A 20-gallon tank is recommended for one goldfish, with an additional 10 gallons for each extra fish. Due to their body shape and slower swimming abilities, these fish do best in aquariums with peaceful tankmates. Regular water changes and strong filtration are crucial for maintaining water quality, as Orandas tend to produce a significant amount of waste.
Diet:
As omnivores, Panda Oranda Goldfish thrive on a varied diet of high-quality pellets or flakes. Supplement their diet with fresh vegetables like peas or spinach, as well as treats such as brine shrimp or bloodworms, to ensure they remain healthy and vibrant.
