Oranda

A variant of Goldfish (Carassius auratus)

Oranda

A round twin-tailed fancy crowned by a raspberry-like fleshy headgrowth (wen); the Red Cap is a white body with a red wen.

Keeper tips for this variant

The wen can overgrow the eyes and traps debris — keep pristine water (low ammonia/nitrate) to prevent wen infections and watch that it doesn't blind the fish.
