Oranda Goldfish - Red & White
Part of the Goldfish family - Orandas stand out among other Goldfish due to their distinctive hood (otherwise known as a wen or crown), the bulbous growth on the top of their head. The Red & White variant of the Oranda features scales of bright red and silvery white. This beautiful pattern, combined with their distinctive hood, is a popular choice among Goldfish enthusiasts and makes an excellent addition to your aquarium or garden pond.
Goldfish were originally cultivated in China over 1000 years ago, and over the centuries, have been developed into many different types all over the world. The Red & White Oranda is one of the many subspecies of Goldfish that have been bred to enhance certain qualities, and makes for an impressive showpiece in your aquarium.
Like all Oranda Goldfish, Red & White Orandas have a distinctive shape due to the fleshy growth on their cranium, which begins to form in the first one to two years of the fishās growth. This protuberance continues to grow throughout the Orandaās life, resulting in truly spectacular older specimens. However, while visually impressive, the Orandaās hood makes them slightly more challenging to keep than other Goldfish. You need to be wary of sharp or rough surfaces in your aquarium, as this can damage the Orandaās hood if they bump or brush against them.
Red & White Oranda Goldfish make peaceful tankmates, but are relatively slow swimmers and can struggle to compete with faster fish for food.
We recommend feeding your Red & White Orandas Pisces Goldfish Pellets or Flakes. Spirulina Flakes and Algae Wafers will provide valuable variety to their diet. Weāve found that Red & White Orandas, like all Goldfish, enjoy eating Duckweed, which is easy to grow in your aquarium and is available from Scapeshop.com.au.
These cold water fish thrive in water temperatures ranging from 8-23 degrees celsius, and as they produce lots of waste, we recommend good filtration and plenty of plants to oxygenate and clean the water, as well as enriching their lives and supplementing their diets.
