Assorted Orandas (Carassius auratus) - Small/Medium Big

The raspberry-like growth on an oranda's head — the wen — isn't fully developed at this size and keeps building for the first couple years of the fish's life, so what you're buying now is really a preview of the adult. Nobody's fully settled on what the wen is for biologically, though fat storage and secondary sexual signaling are the leading theories. Assorted colors in this batch, small/medium to big, slow and gentle like every fancy goldfish.

Care level: Easy · Temperament: Peaceful · Max size: ~8" · Min tank: 30 gal or pond · Diet: Omnivore, goldfish pellets + veggies
