Calico Telescope Goldfish
Goldfish are a great starter fish to recommend for ponds and aquariums. The Calico Telescope Goldfish has a white body with markings of red, orange and black. They can be distinguished by their large extending eyes that resemble telescopes. They are very hardy and will eat just about anything that is fed to them. Like most goldfish, the Calico Telescope will get quite large and will need a large aquarium or pond when full grown. They are considered diggers, so use caution when adding plants because they can get uprooted. They will eat just about any pellet or flake that you offer, however, be sure the food has vegetable foods in it. Freshwater food with vegetables will help prevent swim bladder problems.
