Stately and stubby with a roaring red head, the Red Lionhead is definitely an attention-getter. Visually, Lionheads are notable for their lack of a dorsal fin. 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.
