Goldfish are hardy fish and do relatively well even in poorer water conditions. There are many varieties available; Comets, a popular goldfish for ponds and water gardens where they add such beauty with their long slender bodies, typically solid orange with a metallic appearance.

Shubunkin have longer, thinner bodies and are typically shaped like traditional goldfish. Shubunkin can have a long tail fin and wide rounded fin lobes and are primarily bred and enjoyed for their beautiful colors.
