About
The Oranda is recognised by its distinctive fleshy wen (hood) that covers the head and cheeks. The calico pattern displays a mix of orange, black, and white across the body and fins. A graceful, slow-moving fancy goldfish.
Care Guide
pH 7.0–8.0, temp 10–22°C. Slow swimmer — do not mix with fast fish. Clean the wen area gently during water changes to prevent bacterial growth. Feed sinking pellets to minimise air swallowing.
