About
A calico Fantail with nacreous scales producing a beautiful mosaic of red, white, blue, and black across the round body and flowing double tail. One of the most popular fancy goldfish in Dutch and Belgian shops, combining the easy care of the Fantail with appealing multicolour patterning. Recommended for beginners to fancy goldfish.
Care Guide
Provide excellent filtration and regular water changes. Feed quality goldfish pellets or flake. Keep with other fancy goldfish of similar size. Cool water (10–22°C). Fantails are the hardiest double-tailed fancy goldfish — a great starting point. The calico pattern is unique on each fish. Avoid mixing with single-tailed active goldfish.
