Available in a range of vibrant colors such as red, white, orange, and calico, these goldfish are sure to be the focal point of any aquarium or pond.
Our small 2-inch assorted Ryukin Goldfish are ideal for aquarists looking for young, healthy fish that will grow and develop into their full, majestic size. Their hardy nature makes them perfect for both beginners and experienced goldfish keepers.
Care:
Ryukin Goldfish are known for their hardy nature and adaptability, but like all goldfish, they require clean, well-filtered water. A 20-gallon tank is recommended for one Ryukin, with an additional 10 gallons for each extra fish. Regular water changes are important to maintain good water quality, as these goldfish are known to produce a fair amount of waste.
Due to their shorter body shape, Ryukins are strong swimmers and can live alongside other fancy goldfish species. However, it’s best to avoid housing them with faster or more aggressive tankmates.
Diet:
Ryukin Goldfish thrive on a diet of high-quality goldfish flakes or pellets. Their diet can be supplemented with treats like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and vegetables such as blanched spinach or peas to provide variety and ensure optimal health.
Highlights:
- Striking body shape with a prominent hump and flowing fins
- Available in a range of vibrant colors
