About

The White Pearlscale is a compact, globe-shaped fancy goldfish with its characteristic dome-shaped raised scales that create the appearance of a pearl necklace draped across the body. Its clean, pure white coloration gives it an elegant, understated beauty that contrasts beautifully with more colorful tank mates. Like all Pearlscales, its spherical body predisposes it to digestive issues if fed improperly, making diet selection especially important.

Care Guide

Feed sinking goldfish pellets and significant amounts of fresh vegetables (peas, zucchini) to prevent swim bladder issues. Provide gentle to moderate filtration without strong currents. Maintain cool, clean water with regular partial changes. House only with other slow fancy goldfish.
