XL Goldfish White Carassius Auratus 20cm

Overview: The White Goldfish, a variant of the common goldfish, is a captivating and elegant freshwater fish known for its striking all-white appearance. This peaceful species is a favorite among aquarists for its graceful swimming and charming demeanor. With proper care, these goldfish can live for many years, making them a delightful long-term companion for fish enthusiasts.

Origin: Originally derived from wild carp, this goldfish variety has been selectively bred for its unique coloration. They have a rich history, originating in East Asia and later spreading to other parts of the world due to their popularity in ornamental ponds and aquariums.

Feeding: White Goldfish are omnivores and thrive on a balanced diet. They should be fed high-quality goldfish pellets or flakes, supplemented with fresh vegetables like peas and spinach, and occasional protein sources like brine shrimp or bloodworms. Overfeeding should be avoided as it can lead to health issues and water quality problems.

Tank Mates: These goldfish are generally peaceful and can be kept with other non-aggressive fish of similar size. Ideal tank mates include other goldfish varieties, rosy barbs, and zebra danios. Avoid housing them with small, nippy, or aggressive fish.

Aggression: White Goldfish are known for their serene nature and are typically not aggressive. They are social fish and enjoy the company of their own kind, but they can also coexist peacefully with other compatible species.

Experience Level: Suitable for beginners, these goldfish are relatively hardy and adaptable. However, they do require proper tank maintenance and water quality management, making them a good choice for novice aquarists willing to learn and commit to regular care.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 65°F to 72°F (18°C to 22°C)
  • pH: 6.5 to 7.5
  • Water Hardness: 5 to 19 dGH

Adequate filtration and regular water changes are essential to maintain a healthy environment. A minimum tank size of 20 gallons is recommended, with additional space needed for multiple fish to ensure their well-being and comfort.
