    Aquatics Gallery > Asian Zone

    SPECIE NAME:Carassius auratus

    COMMON NAME OF THE SPECIE: Goldfish

    LOCATION: Commonly found in East Asia

    HABITAT: They inhabit the slow moving and stagnant waters of rivers, lakes, ponds, and ditches feeding on plants, detritus, small crustaceans, and insects.

    SIZE: UPTO 10 cm UPTO 0.1 kg

    DIET: Since they are omnivorous, the Common Goldfish will generally eat all kinds of fresh, frozen, and flake foods. To keep a good balance give them a high quality flake food everyday. To care for your goldfish, feed brine shrimp (either live or frozen), blood worms, Daphnia, or tubifex worms as a treat. As it gets older it will need a greater proportion of vegetable matter and items such as spinach leaves, frozen peas.

    FACT: Goldfish are a peculiar species that can tell different faces apart and are able to distinguish between different shapes, colors and sounds. They don’t like to be kept in the dark and, unlike humans, they are able to see ultra-violet and infra-red light. Maximum reported age of a goldfish is 41 years.
