Red Fantail
Colorful and full of personality, Red Fantails are hand-selected for unique coloration and overall superior health, these exotic goldfish are tended to by the PetSolutions husbandry staff following their importation. In preparation for shipping, a high quality pellet food with some vegetable matter is introduced. These Chinese imports are all strains of the species Carassius auratus. Hardy and long-lived, they can survive cooler temperatures. Extended periods below 60º F or above 80º F may not be tolerated well. Because they need some vegetable matter, they may cause damage to finer-leaved plants, but typically do no damage to thicker, hardy bog plants. While flake food will suffice for these fish, many aquatic professionals recommend a good-quality pellet food of no more than 30% protein to help keep these premium specimens in ideal health.
Approximate Arrival Size for Fantail Goldfish: Small: 1.5 to 2.75".; Medium: 4 to 5".; Large: 5 to 6".
