Additional Comments

Despite having the common name of Goldfish, most Goldfish tend to be orange-red rather than golden! The Golden Comet is one of the few varieties available that is a rich golden colour and it makes a great contrast to the other commonly kept Goldfish colour combinations. Ideal fish for both indoors and outdoors.
